Filling out multiple forms at once

I am solving the following problem.

For one order, I deal with signing contracts and filling out other documents or forms where I write out 90% of the same data. Is there any Adobe Acrobat function where I could enter the data I want to fill in and everything would be automatically saved in about 10 forms?

There are several ways to do this. One of the easiest ways is to create a template form contain all fields that will be used then export an .fdf file, then import the .fdf file to the other forms:

this.exportAsFDF();

this.importAnFDF();

The key is to name the fields identically across all forms.
