      fdf_header();

      /* start new fdf */
      $fdf = fdf_create();

      /* set field "foo" to value "bar" */
      $fdf_set_value($fdf, "foo", "bar");

      /* tell client to display FDF data using "fdf_form.pdf" */
      fdf_set_file($fdf, "http://www.example.com/fdf_form.pdf");

      /* output fdf */
      fdf_save();

      /* clean up */
      fdf_close();
    ?>
