What did she use to create the form? If she used Adobe Pro 7,
it includes Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7 which allows saving
filled in forms in the Reader as well as data extraction. Take
a look at the Adobe demo (link is below) to see if it matches
what you need. Also take a look at the sample PDF form at the
end (or click on Summary).
In short, LiveCycle Designer seems have some functions of
Extensions. Extensions was meant to run on a server so that
whomever was filling out a form had to authenticate (or be
within the corporate firewall) for instance, among other
things. A PDF form may be "locally" enabled by using LiveCycle
Designer. At least that is the way I understood the demo and
documentation on Adobe's web site. "I maybe right or I maybe
wrong" as the song goes. :D
Demo (requires Flash) is at

Adobe Pro 7 details (including the Demo link) is at

This is one of the differences between Standard and Pro.
