Hi,

You don't need to do that. You can have your form as is just return PDF as a response.

You can choose what ever library you want to generate PDF files. My personal favourite is wkhtmltopdf.

Its not clear exactly what you want to do (or why) but here is a good article on different ways of working with PDF forms via Python:

(Also see: https://code-industry.net/free-pdf-editor/ if you have the option to pre-create forms for use on your site.)
