| 802292 | 2009-08-18 23:04:00 | Hi, If you have a pdf form, you can type data into the form fields and print the document (with the details you entered in the fields). What you cant do is save the pdf containing the data you entered unless you buy a very expensive authoring tool from adobe(something nasty like nearly $1000!). This tool enables something called the "local save" feature - so a user with pdf reader would see a save option that would let them save the form compltete with data. I see that the free foxit reader lets you open a pdf form file and lets you save data in the file - but its probably not realistic to tell the world to go with the foxit reader (even though I tell everyone that I can :-) ). Does anyone know of a free/cheap/demo tool that enables the "local save" feauture in a pdf form document so that I can distribute a pdf form file that people can fill in and save? |
