Address on a PDF Form

Hello everybody,
I'm working with a Form created with Adobe Interactive Forms. Is it only a Form for Print, it is not interactive.
An address of the user should appear on the Form, but the user should be able to set somewhere if his personal address or the address of the company appears. The Form should show, depending of the user settings, the right address.
How can something like that be achieved? I'm thinking the user could set up a value for the address he wants in a customizing table and the form uses alternative fields to show the address. But since I'm new in this area, I'm opened to other suggestions.
Thank you and regards!

Hello again,
to be very specific, i work in the HCM module: for one employee I have to write in a form his actual address (which is saved in the Infotyp 0006) or the address of the Personal Area ( Personalbereich), which is saved in table T500P.
Since there is no Address number (ADDNR) stored somewhere (at least I don't know any), the option of the employee has to be saved somewhere, to know which address he prefers. This is why I'm thinking at a customizing table, where he stores his option, and then, in the form, depending on his option, I can prepare the address he wants.
Do you see it this way too?
Thanks again for your help!

How to make multi-box fields for name or address in a PDF form to be filled in?

I would like to know how to make fields for name and address in a PDF form.
I am now using Acrobat 8 Pro on Windows Vista. I have downloaded a form in the format of a PDF file. Basically it is just a file holding images of pages of the document, and there are no fields for me to type something on it using computer. This form will be used frequently by me, but I don't want to print it out and fill it in every time by hand. I want to fill it in in the computer and print copies of it when needed. The output will then be much more neat and tidy.
I have seen PDF forms with blanks for typing name and address, which means the form can be filled in on the computer before printing. They are special, as these blanks allow users to type name and address with every character occupying a box in the field, which consists of ten boxes or so. These are not ordinary textfields. I want to make similar inputting field as well.
Does anyone knows something about making these input fields with each character using 1 little box in the multi-box field? Any ideas are appreciated.

Use text fields with the comb of x characters feature.

Button to send filled out form as completed pdf form via email

I have created a form that when filled out, should send the form by email to the recipient as a completed pdf form. It works with Adobe Acrobat but not Reader.
Any Ideas?
form can be found at: http://www.lcyc.ca/images/stories/macman2012/macmanentry.pdf

Check out:

Use your real name, and e-mail address in the PDF form fields, and recieve a customized email copy and response.
The script will parse and merge the XDP submission, so there's no need to Reader Enable your forms.
PDFEmail.net works in ASP.net web servers.
Note: Do not submit sensitive information, this is just a demo. I may get a BCC of the form.

PDF Form: Allow customer to enter name & address in a Printable letter

I'm creating a letter which people can:
-Download as a PDF from my website
-Open in a PDF application and enter their name and address
-Print off the letter with the name and address (that they entered above) in it.
What's the best way of doing this? I first thought InDesign CS6 might be a good option as it has PDF form creation tools (and I have created a separate thread in the InDesign community about that), but I thought I would post here, in case InDesign is not the best option.
Thanks for any help.

The basic form (no fields) can be created in InDesign, or any word processor or layout program and printed to a PDF file. Then open the file in Acrobat and add the form fields. For name and address you would add text fields. Be aware that when you start adding personal information, you should not be asking for a submission by e-mail. In your case, you are asking for a print and that should be fine. In Acrobat (or Reader I think) you have to print document and markup.

Send PDF form to email address user enters in textfield on form.

I would like to be able to allow the person using the form to choose what email address the PDF form is emailed to. I read this post which sounds like what I want but I keep getting a Submit Cancelled error. The email does get generated and the form is attached as a PDF so that part works okay.

This is the code I am using as I only need the To: address populated.
form1.Page1.Button1::preSubmit:form - (JavaScript, client)
var strToAddress
//Capture the values from the form fields.
strToAddress = txtToAddress.rawValue;
event.target.submitForm({cURL:"mailto:"+ strToAddress,cSubmitAs:"PDF",cCharset:"utf-8"});

Hi,
There is an example here: http://assure.ly/eUR4wJ.
// Declare the variable
var vEmail;
// Check that the email field is not null
if (txtToAddress.rawValue !== null) {
vEmail = txtToAddress.rawValue;
// Send email
event.target.submitForm({cURL:"mailto: " + vEmail + "?subject=&body=",cSubmitAs:"PDF",cCharset:"utf-8"});

Submitting a specific page on a PDF form to a different email address

Hi
I have a submit button on my pdf form that emails the completed form to myself. I was wondering if it is possible to send a speceifc page (for example page 2) to a differnt email address.
Thank you

The built-in PDF plugins of the browsers are usually quite bad when it comes to scripts, so I would say it will probably be the same. At least with Reader you know for sure what's going to work and what not. With those plugins it's a wild stab in the dark...

Acrobat 9Pro - How to add a submit (to email address) button for an online fillable PDF form.

Sorry if this has been answered before, but this is my first time trying to add a submit button to the bottom of a online fillable pdf form. I have 5 of these froms to do. I need the user to go to my website, click the link to open an online fillable form, fill it out and click a submit button in the form, so it can be emailed to an individual. I thought I followed all the steps correctly in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro, every which way I could find, but the form gives me an error "this operation not permitted", it's in IE, created in Vista and I now have a headache. Do I need to add extra code to my website html somewhere?
Does anyone have the neccessary steps to make this work, a video would be even better. Do I have to have this LifeCycle Designer thing?

Thanks sooo much!!

Some comments based on your application:
1. It looks like might likely exceed the 500 use limit, in that case to not use Reader Rights or you will violate the license. The cost beyond that can be negotiated with Adobe (if they will talk to you), but don't expect it to be check. In that case, submit the form data as and FDF file. This file can be imported into the form at your end and get exactly the same results as if the whole form had been sent. The FDF submission does not require Reader Rights. The parent will still be able to print the form, but saving would require having Acrobat, not Reader.
2. A lot of the data appears to be personal in terms of the name of children, addresses, etc. It would be a good idea to check with legal counsel about submitting such information by e-mail, particularly for children. E-mail is not generally considered secure, unless you possibly used some form of secure e-mail. For that reason you should consider submitting the data to a web script that would be stored someplace for you to obtain it and possibly send you a notice of receipt. A secure website is preferred for this use. You should keep the option open for anyone to submit the form in paper if they object to the potential security risks with your online submission method.
I know those put rinkles in your forms, but for such an application it is a good idea to consider the potential consequences if you do not worry about the form security and number of uses. The potential is to put you out of business or more. OK, an extremist view, but worth considering.

Emailing a PDF form w/o an email address submit button

I have created a form; but my company does not want it to go to specific email address. So I took out the submit button. What they want is for people to be able to fill in the PDF form and send it to whomever they choose via email. BUT in reader, they cannot save the PDF. What do I need to do to get this to work correctly?
Thanks!
Diana

I had the same request.
All i did was leave the email address blank. On the "Design View", it will show an error but the employee will not see this. They can then just enter an email address.

How to: Create a master form that auto-fills data into other pdf forms?

I hope someone can please help me. I have about 15 PDF forms that all require similar data entry (name, address etc). Can I create a master form that we fill in once per client, and then auto-fill in the matching data on the 15 forms?
I am not looking for an online solution as the information is highly sensitive.
I have already created a form in Acrobat X Pro with the 'master data', and created the (15) forms with identically named fields. How I link the forms now to the master, I cannot figure out (after much searching).
I have read similar questions on the same topic but have not found any answers. I hope this time someone can please help.
Many thanks in advance.

Thank you! I had just figured out how to export the data from the master as an FDF file and then import it to the other files. I'm afraid I don't understand scripting to automate the process across multiple files. To you mean with java script?
I've also thought about combining the forms, once we know which ones the particular client will need. I have to see how it works in practice for my colleagues who will be using them.
Thank you again.

I need to make a pdf form that is fillable and send from ipad to email not tracked just the complete email. Can someone help me.

I have forms that I have created with submit buttons, that are filled out and sent complete to an email box. I would like to do the same only have my form filled out on an ipad and then have the submit button send the completed form the same way.
I don't want to gather the data, since i am doing this for another department. They want to track there own data via the Pdf's they receive. Is this possible?

majende,
Adobe Reader for iOS does support a Submit button.
(a) Button action to submit an entire PDF document via email

Do you use the desktop version of Adobe Acrobat to create a PDF form?
For option (a)
Add the "Submit a form" action to your Submit button.
Enter "mailto:" (including a colon) followed by email recipient(s). Please add a comma between two email addresses.
Example: [email protected], [email protected]
Select "PDF The complete document".
This particular type of PDF form will work with Adobe Reader desktop and mobile products (including Adobe Reader for iOS and Android).
In Adobe Reader for iOS, a user can do the following steps to submit the particular type of PDF form.
Fill out the PDF form.
Tap the Submit button in the PDF form.
Select "Share Original Document" or "Share Flattened Copy" from the Share File dialog.
Adobe Reader for iOS will automatically fill in the email address(es) that you specified when you created the PDF form.
Tap the Send button in the upper right corner.

1)form to capture data 2) massage data/output 3) import data from Step 2 to PDF FORM 4) save for download

I have a project that entails tax forms from the IRS -- I know everyone's favorite stuff.
1)I need to setup a form that asks the webusers questions regarding their personal tax information -
2) then validate/massage that data/information and determine what PDF form template to output this data to. (possibly output to 4 forms determined by users response)
3) output the data collected in step 1 to the correct PDF template/form example template= http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040.pdf - applying the data to the correct fields - bascially filling out the users name, address, calculations etc.
4)allow the user to save/print/download the produced form in step 3
I know I am not the first person to need this functionality. Can you please simply answer my question - can this be done? Does it require software from other companies, or is this something that can be accomplished with just adobe products? If so, can you point me to some tutorials that show me the necessary process to do this?
I very much appreciate any support you can provide me - I need to start on this project yesterday.
Thanks in advance for your time.

In your PHP code, change this -
$editFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
to this -
?>
<?php
if ((isset($_POST["MM_insert"])) && ($_POST["MM_insert"] == "registreren")) {
// add your captcha verification code here ....
// captcha most likely ends with a header command to relocate failed attempts, so make sure you add
// an exit() command after that header. Otherwise, allow the successful captcha to fall into the following
// block of code.
// don't ignore that closing brace
?>
<?php
$editFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];

How do I get multiple people to sign a PDF form using a Touchscreen PC?

I have created a PDF form, using Acrobat XI Pro, to record a client training session. The form is being completed using Adobe Reader (on a Panasonic Touchbook running Windows 7), so I have extended it to allow saving and signing. On the form I have a digital signature field for each trainee (next to a text field for their name) and a digital signature field for the trainer.
Creating a proper digital signature, signable using a password, is fine for the trainer, but the trainees will only be seen once. Often/usually they do not have email addresses so emailing for a signature, using EchoSign/DocuSign is out, but I have a touch-screen computer so should just be able to pass it round for a quick signature. Also, the form will be completed offline, with the trainer turning up on a site, not having access to the internet.
Clicking on the signature field does not provide a way to create the handwritten signature, and although the sign tab shows EchoSign in Adobe reader, allowing you to create such a signature this is shown as disabled (I imagine because I have extended the form).
This is the last piece to the puzzle. Any ideas?
Thank,
Len

Is there a way to create an email button to multiple addresses within a PDF?

I have to regularly update a list of committee members and their email addresses which is then sent to all of the members.
Does anyone know if there a way of creating a button for each of the committees in the list which, when clicked, creates an email to all the members contained within that committee? I will need to add up to 14 email addresses to the one button. I need to know this because the various members in the committees are fed up of copying and pasting all the email addresses into their email messages.
I am now using Acrobat XI but I still can't figure out if this is even possible. If not a button, is there some other way of being able to launch an email to multiple addresses within a PDF?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Not really. But you can combine the data from multiple forms into a single (new) spreadsheet via Tools - Forms - More Form Options - Merge Data Files into Spreadsheet...

Is there a way to delete one of several checkboxes from a pdf form without the leftover checkboxes automatically renumbering themselves?

Is there a way to delete one of several checkboxes from a pdf form without the leftover checkboxes automatically renumbering themselves?
I used LiveCycle Designer to make a pdf form with many checkboxes. When I deleted a few of the checkboxes the rest left on the form renumbered themselves. This made my JavaScript out of sync since the JavaScript checkbox numbers did NOT update automatically. I am hoping there is a preference option to not auto update. I just cannot find it,

I believe you're using the same name for each checkbox, right?!
If so, each checkbox has an index number which represents its position relative to the other copies in the XML tree and when you add, delete or reorder the copies the index will always be recreated because thats the way how XML works.
There is no way to stop Designer from doing this, I'm afraid.
To address individual objects through JavaScript you should use unique names.
