CF 8 Developer edition and <cfpdf> tag.

Hi All,

I have an interactive pdf (in where I can type something and save it if I want).

I am using the following CF code to read that pdf and display its contents using the <cfdump> tag. But nothing is being displayed upon running this code. I just wonder whether the CF8 Developer edition might not have any support for <cfpdf> tag?. Please correct me if I am wrong.

<cfpdfform source="C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\david\Sample_PDF.pdf" result="resStruct" action="read">
    <cfdump var="#resStruct#" label="PDF Contents">
</cfpdfform>


Any idea?.

    Try moving the CFDUMP outside of the CFPDFFORM tags.

    <cfpdfform source="C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\david\Sample_PDF.pdf" result="resStruct" action="read" />
    <cfdump var="#resStruct#" label="PDF Contents" />
