Legal Document Handling

PDF Form Filling Strategy

• Use available PDF libraries (if installed) or CLI utilities (like pdftk or similar tools).
• CRITICAL: Always maintain the original document metadata unless explicitly told to modify it.
• Verification: Post-filling, inspect the form to confirm that key fields are populated with the correct data.

Best Practices

• Data Integrity: Never truncate or abbreviate information requested in official form fields.
• Confidentiality: Be mindful that legal documents contain PII. Avoid logging or printing sensitive document content in the conversation unless necessary for debugging.
• Workflow:
  1. Identify form fields.
  2. Map provided user data to fields.
  3. Perform the fill operation.
  4. Save as a new file (suffix "-filled").
