Does the recipient of an Acrobat fillable form have to have Acrobat in order to fill it out?

I'm hoping to post fillable Adobe Acrobat forms on our website, but am wondering if those filling them out will have to also have Acrobat. Most if not all of them will only have Reader.

Hi lorriec60821670,
If the form is saved in 'Reader Extended PDF' format then it is not necessary for the person filling the form to have Acrobat installed on their system.
You can created forms using Acrobat on your computer & Save them using 'Reader Extended PDF' option , this will allow the users at the other end to fill the form using Adobe Reader & it won't be necessary for them to install Acrobat on their system.
Let me know if you still need any help, we will be more than happy to assist you.
Regards,
Aadesh

    Using Adobe to fill in. I think it may be my browser for e-mail will not support the forms. If I convert to Word or Exel, they send just fine.

  • Is it possible to make a fillable form have variable fields - so if you select a radio button it triggers a different form field to be seen depending on which radio button is selected??

    Yes, one needs to use some custom JavaScript code to control the other fields' properties.

    You have 30 days from when you download it, but when you then start watching it you have 48 hours (24 if your account is US based) to finish watching it before it expires.

    The mailbox list is divided into categories with headings in caps, such as ON MY MAC. When you hover the cursor over one of those headings (except for MAILBOXES), you should see the word Show or Hide on the right. Click Show. The  MAILBOXES category can't be hidden.
    In each category, the mailboxes are arranged in groups, such as Inbox. To the left of each group is a small disclosure triangle. If the triangle points to the right, click it so that it points down.

  • How do I make all the text entered in a fillable form print?

    I have created fillable forms for patients to fill out on our website then print and bring with them.  When they print the form, all of the information they entered does not print.  How can I make it all print??

    Hi Dana,
    Could you please let me know how were these PDF forms created.
    You might also need to check in 'File> Properties> Security' tab whether 'filling of form fields' options is allowed or not.
    Hope to hear from you.

  • Why does the coversheet show in Acrobat Pro 9?

    This may have been answered before...I just haven't found it.
    Using Acrobat Pro 9 on XP...
    Why does the  'For the best experience..." coversheet show in documents that I have inserted pages to?
    I do everything with Acrobat Pro 9.
    it is frustrating to not be able to access these documents.
    thanks for the help.

    Without seeing the form it would be pretty hard to tell beyond what was stated.
    Are any of the users using a mobile device to fill in the form?
    It is possible the non-Adobe mobile users are manually adding up the fields and entering the string currency symbols and thousand separators, either of which could cause this error.

  • When I send a PDF by email the recipient sees only a blank form on the iPhone and iPad. This has only occurred since IOS 7 was updated

    When I send a PDF attachment by email the recipient sees only a blank unfilled form. This has only occurred since IOS 7 was updated. The email with the PDF when recieved by my MAC is OK, but my phone and iPad are not!
    Any advise would be appreciated.

    I have the same problem.  Sought to insert a pdf into Apple Mail after editing a form pdf and only the blank form shows.  I didn't use Preview to generate the form, just Acrobat.  And, the filled in form inserts perfectly into an email when I use Outlook for Mac.  Problem only with Apple Mail.

    Hi there
    No, it doesn't include Acrobat.
    The Photography plan has Photoshop + Lightroom
    Acrobat is available as a separate subscription or as part of complete Creative Cloud (Acrobat XI Pro).
    Hope this helps.
