PHP save filled PDF to server from iframe

I am developing a PHP employee application section for a client's secure website. They want the potential employee to fill out a W4 fillable PDF and have it emailed to them. I have found some solutions for pulling information from a PHP form and spitting it out to the PDF via PDFTK.

What I am curious about is: Can I achieve the same result by having the user fill out the actual PDF form (maybe in iframe or however) via PHP? or am i stuck developing the W4 in PHP then transferring the submitted values to PDFTK?

I'm just thoroughly confused on this whole process, so any insight or resources are appreciated.

Maybe what you really want is for the PDF document to post itself to a url. That way you can let people view/use the pdf, and receive/save the whole document when they are done. This will probably make your client happy, since they likely have a whole workflow based on those W4 PDFs. See Can a PDF fillable form post itself.
