How to extract pdf form fields from this lib ... Is it possible to extract from using javascript only ?

PDFTK Command : # pdftk input.pdf dump_data_fields

I am looking for a similar solution. I want to get PDF label name same as in PDF.

[jelizarovas]

var nameRegex = null;  
 
var FDF_data = pdfFiller.generateFDFTemplate( sourcePDF, nameRegex, function(err, fdfData) {
    if (err) throw err;
    return fdfData;
});

it generates field names from the form. you can try var pdfFiller = require('pdffiller-keepfields'); to also get field values

I need fields and its values

The above is my requirement and the image i pasted will be sent as the pdf

[jelizarovas]

You can't get the values with this library. I switched to "pdf-lib" to have client side pdf manipulation and react-pdf to display that updated data

[saiprasad9467]

Is it possible in pdf-lib for my data retrieval as mentioned above??
