Hello,
you can
A)Create the form you need using angular. Then you can submit form values to server, the server will take these values append them to a PDF template you already have created.
A plugin that may help you is PDFsharp.

B)If you need to display the pdf as is, then i think adobe pdf reader in premium version allows you to do such thing, even you can specify a save button inside pdf to post back to server the values you entered.
