As you work through creating forms (quite a long topic), you may also consider adding a button that e-mails the form data back to you. The JavaScript for the button is in the book and it looks like this: var url = "mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]"; this.submitForm(url,true); Clicking a button with this script automatically opens a blank e-mail message and attaches an FDF file with the contents of all the form fields in that PDF. When you get the e-mail, you simply open the FDF file and Acrobat looks for the PDF (which you have because you made it and put it on line). A side benifit is that the user can also save form field entries by NOT sending the message and keeping the FDF file. They can then come back to the FDF later. This is only good for advanced users, i.e. those who may qualify for scholarships. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Yvonne Strobel Sent: Monday, November 24, 2003 9:55 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PDF] filling out pdf forms on-line The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________ Greetings, I am a novice at this pdf "thing" so please be patient with me. I am sometimes able to type information on-line on forms that have been saved in pdf format and then print the completed form. An example would be the IRS forms. How is this done? I would like to put some scholarship applications on a web page. These forms would be pdfs. What does one do to make these pdfs able to be filled out on-line? I am most grateful for any help!
