Thu May 5 09:29:14 EDT 2016 Slept from ten-something to around seven. Woke up once in the night, around four. Sunny and sixty-four. Goals: Work: - Review invoices Done. - Look into TLS for SIP Done. - Read about filling PDF forms Done. http://www.myown1.com/linux/pdf_formfill.shtml http://joewiz.org/2014/02/13/filling-pdf-forms-with-pdftk-xfdf-and-xquery/ http://www.sitepoint.com/filling-pdf-forms-pdftk-php/ In short, dump the names of the form fields with: % pdftk path/to/the/form.pdf dump_data_fields > field_names.txt We can use the FieldName values to construct an FDF file with our values. Then, dump the values into the PDF, like: % pdftk form.pdf fill_form data.fdf output filled-out.pdf Twenty minute walk at lunch. The oak trees are starting to bud. Lots of flowering trees are in full bloom, and more than once I caught their scent on the wind. Lots of robins. Saw a turkey vulture circling unusually low (possibly the same one that tried to carry off Crystal yesterday). Home: - Grocery Done. - Work on encounter analysis Done. - Roll up a LotFP character or two Done. I'm getting pretty sick of Chrome annoyances, particularly the one where it just stops loading any pages until you restart it. Switching back for Firefox, I guess. I like the way Firefox works, but I wish they would fix the performance. Started a clean Firefox profile. Clean Firefox profile with only LastPass and uBlock Origin installed seems to be working well. http://jrients.blogspot.com/2016/05/old-wine-into-new-skins.html
