I needed to fill forms (e.g., US tax forms) with hierarchical fields (e.g., person1.address.city). This doesn't seem to be supported in fdfgen. So I modified the handle_data_strings function to handle inputs such as this:
I tested it only briefly. So no guarantees. Feel free to integrate it into the code base.
An alternative is to use the somewhat simpler (IMHO) xfdf form data format (also supported by pdftk).
I wrote a simple hand-coded Python function to generate that and used pdftk to fill the form. I can share the function is anyone is interested.
