PDF Requirements

Q: We are an Insurance Company and we like to implement our policy
creation/print solution in PDF format. We are currently authoring our
Policies using Microsoft Word 2003 with form fields defined in the
document. We would like our intranet web application (written in
VB.NET) to read this Word policy template file and convert it to PDF
(as interactive form PDF) and programmatically insert the appropriate
data into the form fields. We also need to insert watermark into the
PDF file.

Does your SDK supports dynamic insertion of data into the PDF form
fields ?
Does your SDK supports inserting watermark into the PDF document ?
Does your SDK supports merging of multiple PDF documents ?
Also can the final PDF form be stored in the memory instead of an
external file ?

Thank you for your help
