Is there such a thing as a data field/PDF code repository for mapping answers from a database?  I want to create customized forms for different programs but the PDF codes that I need to map from will always be the same- the codes I need  to place on the form will differ based on the progam.  Any ideas?

Please explain in more detail. I don't understand your terminology. Are these customized form the same form (i.e. the same form fields and layout), but just with different data? or do these forms have different fields and layout?

If this is just a data handling issue, then yes, there are many different ways to accomplish pre-populating data into a form. Even hiding data in a form.
