Merge pdf template with fdf data on server

Is there an Adobe product that will merge a PDF form template with the data in an FDF file into a flattened out PDF on the server? Something like FDFMerge but from Adobe (and maybe cheaper).

Can I install Acrobat on a server and write a plugin or script Acrobat to do this if there is no such product?

I spent two hours and spoke with 16 different people in Adobe today and nobody could answer this question. Seems like a reasonable feature.

You cannot install Acrobat on a server. Do a search on Adobe.com for the fdf toolkit. That probably will resolve your issue.
