Is it possible to add an FDF file inside a PDF automatically using python or javascript?
The FDF file is the file with the comments of a PDF. It is NOT for filling in a fillable PDF.

    You can import an FDF file using JavaScript, yes. See the documentation of the importAnFDF method of the Document object.

    The question remains what you mean by "automatically", though. Something has to trigger this action.

    using the importAnFDF method is it possible to import an FDF like the attached one?
    What I find is how to import FDF to fill in autofillable PDFs.
    I uploaded it as .txt because it wouldn't let you upload .fdf, but it really is a .fdf, you just have to change the extension.

    It didn't upload, but if you mean one that creates comments, then yes.
