Re: Fillable pdf forms and Framemaker documents

2006-12-28 Thread David Spreadbury
Rebecca,
  Art's approach works.
   
  I just tested this by inserting a PDF fillable form in a PDF created from 
FrameMaker.
   
  All of the fields of the inserted form are accessible, as if the form was 
standalone.

Fillable pdf forms and Framemaker documents

2006-12-27 Thread Rebecca . L . Frasure
I was under the impression you could insert a fillable form into a 
Framemaker book after it had been converted to PDF. I keep trying and the 
fields go away. If anyone can help me, I would be grateful!!! Thanks.

Fillable pdf forms and Framemaker documents

2006-12-27 Thread Art Campbell
I believe you can add a fillable PDF form to the .PDF of a FrameMaker
book after the fact, with Acrobat, but I don't think you can embed a
working form into a FM file. FM treats imported .pdfs as graphics.

A third party outfit, such as Microtype, may make some kind of add-in,
but if you were going to keep it simple, I think you essentially want
to merge .pdfs late in the production steps, after both the .pdf book
and .pdf form have been created.
