I am trying to create a simple form in Acrobat 6.0 Pro. It's a Quark 5.01
doc that I transformed into Acrobat, then added the text fields and finally
added a submit button with my own email address as the return email. I have
two problems encountered in a test.

The recipient of my test has only Reader, as I assume 99% of my recipients
will have. They won't have the full Acrobat program.

1. The recipient could type data in my form but got a warning message that
stated they could not send or save the data without Acrobat 6.0. WHY?? I
thought the beauty of Acrobat forms was that everyone could use them.

2. When I test the "email submit" button on my system it works great. It
fires up a new email and attaches the form. The recipient gets a warning
that states "cannot perform that function". Is this a problem because that
person may not have the same email system? Lotus, Explorer, etc.? Or is it
the same issue of not having Acrobat 6.0?

My goal is to send a simple one-page form to computer-iliterate people.
Have them fill it out and return it. I am looking for the simplist way.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks, Brad
