Is it possible to merge Word data into a P.D.F. form?

I suspect this is really an Acrobat developer question and you will need to
ask elsewhere, but assuming you mean that you have an Acrobat form and you
are trying to populate it with data, as I understand it there are probably
two ways you can poulate the form with data
a. use a comma-delimited text file with a column header row
b. use Javascript

And that's all I know. So the question then is "what do you mean by 'Word
data' ?" If you mean "data in a Word table in a Word document", you would
have to have a mechanism to extract it into format (a) or using method (b).
If the data has been entered using Word 2002's facility to create and
maintain a list, the data will be in a Jet .mdb and you will also have to
have a mechanism to extract it into format (a) or use method (b). And so on.
