Peter,
one approach is to generate a FDF file with your database when the
user requests the according form. This FDF will contain all the
personalization data, and then be sent to the user's side. This will
then trigger the loading of the according PDF form (if the user's
browser is correctly configured), and there you have the
personalization.
In order to make the FDF creation easier, you might look at the FDFToolkit.
Hope, this can help.
