Hi Dileep,

Though I am not 100% sure, I hope this can be acheived using "Adobe LiveCycle". Try refering the documentation.

text should be doable, not so sure about images:

there are also a few java libs (fairly easy to integrate w/cf) around that a

google search should turn up.

In that area, you might try jPedal as it is part of CF8 + CF9.  IIRC, there was an example on the jPedal site about extracting images that may be worth a look.
