How to attach a file to a PDF form

Hi there,
I have this great form all set up with buttons allowing the user to save a copy to their pc, submit the form by email and print a copy but the button I've added allowing the user to submit additional documents with the form (using the menu action 'Attach a file') does not seem to work?  I've enabled user rights and when I first open the form and attempt to attach a doc I get a message saying that this function does not work and I have to save another copy of the form.  I do this and then the attach command works but when I submit the form (to myself) I can't see the attachment anywhere? What am I doing wrong?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Roger

Actually, if you extend your PDF form with LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES (or ES2) your users with Adobe Reader can attach files. If you use Acrobat Professional to extend your PDF form your users with Adobe Reader cannot attach files.

  • How to attach HLP file with the existing forms

    We have FORMS 5.0 application running. We have developed .HLP and .CNT files using ROBOHELP utility. I would like to attach the help file to the existing form. I want to use the registry to set the help file path so that I won't hardcode the path. I tried
    using WINHLP32.exe file using the HOST command. This need path settings in the machine. Does any body know other methods instead of using HOST command.
    Thanks in advance.

  • How to handle image files used in PDF forms

    With LiveCycle, I've created an interactive form for Help Desk-type requests, and the form works beautifully. I've tested it, and everything works. Show. Hide, Clear fields. And all the other behaviors I added with Action Builder.
    As a final design feature, on my local machine at work, I added a header image (which is in My Documents>My Pictures). I tested locally and uploaded the form to Sharepoint and tested from there, and from what I can remember, the form looked fine. The header was intact. So I kind of assumed the image was embedded somehow.
    So I brought the file home and opened it there, and -- Voila! -- no header image!
    What happened?
    Does the image file need to be uploaded and the path relative to the location of the file? To me, this doesn't seem to be a huge problem. More of an unexpected one. I can probably upload the image to someplace in Sharepoint and then set the image path in the XML.
    But I'd like to hear the experiences of those who have used image files in their LiveCycle forms.

    In the Object palette make sure Embed Image Data is ticked.

  • How to attach a file

    Dear All,
    I want to send an email but I don,t know how to attach a file. I am using gmail on my ipad2 now I wish to send an email to my friend along with my mail I wish to attach a PDF file.
    Kindly please help me out because it is not showing the option for attaching the file.
    Thanks in advance.

    Unfortunately you can't. But other apps will allow it, like Goodreader. Goodreader is free and lets you open PDFs which can then be emailed. Pages, which is a document-layout programme also allows documents to be emailed within itself.

  • How to attach a file to the mail

    How to attach a file to the mail

    I know that this can be done when going to any PDF program and push (send as  email)
    This also can done with multiple files or even with separate pages from that PDF file (Many programs can do that, like: PDF expert, Adobe Reader, iBooks, PDF Provider, Documents, etc)
    But what if I begin to wright an email, then I wanted to attach a file (such as PDF, or word, or any file) , FOR BASIC APPLE MAIL IT IS UNAVAILABLE
    You can attach Photo or Video but not PDF or other document
    There are some email programs that can attach files to email such as my.mail (as you can see from the photo)
    But why Apple don't provide such simple service ???

  • How to attach multiple file in one mail

    Hi,
    I've problems with sending multiple files via Gmail account (Ipad version)  When sending the photo or video, I've to just click the photo and choose send to mail one by one. Any simpler way?  Sometimes i did sent both mpg and jpg but the reciepient didn't see any attachment too
    Anyone can help advise how to attach different file (doc, video, photo) in one mail will be a lot appreciated. Thank you so much

    You can attach multiple pictures to an email on an ipad2. Don't know about original iPad.
    Choose a photo or take a screen shot (hold down home button and button next to volume control at same time--screen shot now will appear in photos).
    Go to photos and edit your picture or screen shot, save it, then hold down on the image and copy it.
    Go to mail, create a new mail and paste it in.
    Save you mail as a draft.
    Go back to photos and select a different photo, copy it, and return to your draft, and paste it in. Repeat if you need to add more.
    Anything that you can take a screen shot or have an photo of can be pasted in one at a time into that draft email.
    If mail gets uncooperative, during this process, then double click on home button and quit multitasking mail, then open up mail again and send your draft. Uncooperative means gets frozen.

  • Attaching files to a PDF form and Submission.

    I'm pretty new to LC (hence the sn) and running into a little problem.  Currently, I have created a form that allows the attachment of files.  Everything is fine and dandy as I am able to ADD, OPEN and DELETE any file as I'm filling out the form.  However, when I SUBMIT the form in an email to myself, the submitted PDF form does not have any of the files attached to the form.  What am I not doing?  Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks in advance.

    Hi, I'm responding on behalf of AdobeNoobie122...
    Thanks for your response Paul.  I’m currently using LC to develop/run the PDF.  It is in the PDF that I attach the files associated with my form and submit to myself.  Upon receiving the email, I notice the PDF is present without any of the attachments.  And yes, I am submitting the entire PDF and not a data file.

  • How to generate PDF using FDF file and the PDF form template (PHP)

    Hi Folks,
    I'm really sorry that I couldn't follow all the valuable discussions going on here, regularly. I need some immediate help.
    I NEED A PHP SOLUTION. I'm able to generate FDF files using the PDF Form Template in PHP. So, I have a collection of FDF files, which seeks the PDF template, while opened and populates the template with FDF data. Now if I need to save this PDF file, I have to do it manually clicking SAVE option. But, I need to convert FDF to PDF in bulk. So, I need some PHP based solution. The PHP script takes the PDF template and the FDF file and merges them to generate a complete populated PDF file. I know it's possible, but don't know how. I've seen Adobe FDF Toolkit. But by default it doesn't show any guideline for PHP. Please help me to write this code. I'm a professional coder. I can understand your hints and tutorials. PLEASE HELP GOOD PEOPLE.

    The only reason I am responding to this post is because the poster sent me a request through the forum message system asking for my help.
    Although I did populate PDFs with FDF data generated by web forms a year or so ago, I have since abandoned that kind of solution. It was a big headache. I found it far more stable and flexible to use html, php and css to populate forms that are almost as nice looking as PDFs.
    So my advice is, if you can possibly avoid going the FDF/PDF route, you will be better off.

    How to Attach a File Without Embedding It on a Mac?

    I always receive the same response, "Can you send it as an attachment?"

    Thanks
    It's nothing to do with the way you send them. Every mail client chooses how to cope with attachments: in some there is a preference setting but in many cases it automatically displays embedded images. Even where there is a preference setting it's up to the person receiving the email: you can't control it. Why are they so fussed about your sending as an attachment? The image can be saved easily enough, usually by dragging it to the Desktop, or by a button to save attachments. If they really want this you are going to have to zip it, there isn't any other way round it.
