230 Form Autocompletion in Python

[Skyrov01]

Hi there. Wasn't sure where to ask this. I know it's somehow off topic, but. I'm trying to help my friends from an NGO and automate the 230 form completion. I have a few questions about this, and I would really love to share my solution when it will be ready.

Questions?
Is there any way to automate this from Python? I know how to use pypdf, which although it might be the best solution it doesn't work properly.

Another method is using pikepdf, but then again, not sure how to handle the XML data attached to the document.

At this moment, I'm using pyautogui to automate clicks, copy & paste, etc. But isn't what I want in the end.

When I'm doing the following, the output is an empty dictionary.

from pypdf import PdfReader

reader = PdfReader("form_smart.pdf") 
fields = reader.get_fields() 
print(fields)

• form_smart.pdf is the pdf given by ANAF: link
• but when I'm doing the same thing with this type of PDF it works.

I'll be happy to discuss on this subject any time soon.
Thanks
Skyrov
