Hi Pieter,
I did a quick test... created a form using writer, exported a PDF, then added
some data (text box, check boxes) using Acrobat Reader v8 and Foxit PDF reader.
With acrobat, I cannot save. Foxit allows me to save and the changes are there
if I then open the file using acrobat. Foxit is a free for any use program. The
other suggestion, which Mike has put forth, is to install a pdf print driver to
output the filled in form as a pdf. There is an advantage to using this method,
as the form can't be changed after submission.
