The SmartForms feature supports applications that work with PDF files. Your application can process incoming completed PDF forms, extract field data, and write the data into properties on the clipboard. The Pega 7 Platform can also merge data from the clipboard into a PDF form, generating a new PDF document.

eForm file rules hold uploaded PDF form files that are used as templates when generating new PDF documents. Their corresponding eForm map rules (Rule-Map-eForm rule type) specify the relationship between the form fields in the PDF form and properties in your application.
