Is it possible to create a PDF form and send to a group of teachers and have it returned to different email recipeints

Is it possible to create a PDF form for teachers and have it submitted by email to 3 different principals??

Yes. As the target URL of your submit button enter something like this:
mailto:[email protected],[email protected],[email protected]

I created a pdf form and then imported it to Forms Central for distribute. It is now loaded to my website and setup so a person clicks on the link to open the form. At this point they then have to go to upper right to open form using a different view. I would like the form to open directly in Adobe Reader form to make it easier to enter information. Thanks, Ike

If you created it in Forms Central, you have to edit it there. I believe Forms Central is similar to LiveCycle Designer in that the form created is no longer able to be edited in Acrobat. I might be wrong, but that is my understanding. You add the submit button in Forms Central. Within Acrobat, you should be able to go to the forms menu and Manage Data to save the data to an Excel file. Others better with forms should be by to clarify things, but this should get you started. In the future you might find it better to post a forms question in the forms discussions.

Create a PDF form and 1/2 the people can't submit

Hello,
I create a Acrobat Pro 9 form. In it I created a submit button. I then I uploaded to my acrobat.com account to track response. 1/2 the people have been able to submit it without any problems. So it is working. The other half say when they hit the submit button it does nothing. I have made sure they are using Reader 9 or higher. What else could be the issue?
Thanks.

Hello,
You're in the forum for the product Adobe FormsCentral (http://formscentral.adobe.com), a service that allows you to create and distribute forms online. We can't help with questions about issues with PDF forms. I recommend taking a look at the Acrobat User Community site and reposting your question to the forum there:
www.acrobatusers.com/forum
You could also try re-creating your form using FormsCentral... nudge nudge... just a thought.
Best of luck!

Create a PDF Form and Email the entire form w/ responses

I created a form in PDF and I want to e-mail the form with the responses in the fields... like a file-->send to-->mail reciepents as attachment...
I want to e-mail the form with responses not just email the data file of the form...any suggestions..please

I've seen a number of people report this type of behavior and have experienced it myself with Acrobat.com, but have never heard what's causing it or know of a fix. You might try the Acrobat.com forum here to see if they have any ideas.
What's worse is when it appears as though the form submits successfully to Acrobat.com, but the data never gets added to the responses.

PDF forms and how they work with different Reader versions

I'll start this off by giving a little background information and describing a workflow scenario. I work as an InHouse designer for a company that keeps the majority of the employee population always a few versions behind. Fortunately, for us designers they keep us updated, but it doesn't always play nicely when you're saving your PDFs for older versions of Acrobat Reader.
What happens is that I create a form in InDesign, export a PDF, and then create my form fields in Acrobat Pro 9 on a Mac. After saving for version 9 I then take the PDF and test within the Windows environment which our IT is enforcing Acrobat Reader 7. The PDF opens ok and I can fill out the form, but I cannot save. I then open in Acrobat Pro 7 for Windows and then it gives the option to save or make modifications.
My questions really come down to whether or not Reader 7 is doing this because of how old the technology is, or if that would change if our IT would allow Acrobat Reader 8 or 9? Now I've looked at the Acrobat Pro 9 comparison chart and it states "Enable users of Adobe Reader® (version 8 or later) to fill in and save PDF forms locally." Does this mean that we just need version 8 or 9 and then people can save the form? What in version 7 is causing us not to be able to save? Did that change the technology in some way? I'm trying to figure out if we get IT to upgrade users to Reader 9 if this will solve the issue or will they have to install Acrobat Standard/Pro 9 to save a PDF form?
What other selling points could we make to our IT department that using Reader 9 is a lot better than using Reader 7? Any technology benefits, security or functions?
Thanks

No version of Reader can save a filled in form unless it has been enabled first.
To enable, open the file in Acrobat then go to Advanced>Enable usage rights in Adobe Reader...
And for my standard disclaimer, if you are going to use the forms in a corporate environment, be sure to study and understand the usage limits for enabled forms (the limit is 500 uses, but there are caveats to that) in the EULA. Mostly the enabled forms are meant for very small time users. If you do not meet that requirement, Adobe sells another product that can enable files for unlimited uses but it costs in the tens of thousands of dollars and is a server side solution.
Hey Graffii,
I enabled the usage rights and that did help with saving in Reader 7. I am a little concerned about the limit of 500 uses. Let me try and understand you a little better. I have a PDF that has a couple form fields and you're saying that the PDF can only be opened 500 times? I've never heard of restrictions on PDFs before. Does this happen after you place just 1 form field? How do I find out more information? I looked in the EULA, but found nothing.
Also, what does Adobe mean here "Enable users of Adobe Reader® (version 8 or later) to fill in and save PDF forms locally." Are they saying that you need Reader 8 or later to read a form or that you need Acrobat Pro 8 or later to enable the form feature?
It's all very confusing because one of the features they tout in version 9 is the ability to save forms locally, but once I enable the form I could save it with Reader 7. It's hard to tell if they are referring to Reader 9 or Acrobat Pro 9.
Thanks

I'm creating a PDF form and want to include faded text to show an example of what I want people to fill in. Much the same as a search bar in a web browser - this needs to disappear when they click in the field to fill in their details. How do I do this?

I was wanting to create a form that would show sample information in a watermark effect that would diappear once the field was clicked onto.
Example form question and field below:
Rather than the blank fields I wanted them to show some examples (in faded text) but which dispeears once the field is clkicked into (nuch the same as a web search online works)
Anyone know if this is possible?

I need to create a simple form and have it submitted to Paypal...

Hello all,
I need to have visitors go to my website, register and then pay for a seminar at my church. I know how to create a form; but I need to know how to create a form that will register and pay for the event. The payment will go to Paypal, which we already have set up. Any pointers or tutorials around?

That was what I was suggesting. If you are no familiar with secure web sites (and I am not), it is best to have that part handled by pros in that area. They also get to accept the liability in such cases (read any contract carefully). You may want to be sure that the page returned opens in a browser and not in Acrobat. The latter is probably not the best way to link to a secure site.

Restrictions on PDF Form and Submit Form to email

I have two questions:
After creating my pdf form and sending it to the client, once they have filled this in is there a way to restrict the document from being edited again?
How do a add a submit button to the end of my form so that it automatically gets sent in an email?

Read documentation on CF8 : "Although forms created in
LiveCycle Designer allow several types of submission, including XDP
and XML, ColdFusion 8 can extract data from HTTP post and PDF
submissions only".

How to create a pdf form allowing Reader user to insert picture - NOT from their local hard drive - but from photos I want them to choose from?

Is there a way to create a PDF form where a Reader user can insert an image - that's NOT on their local hard drive?
I have 4 photos available - the users of my form will choose one of them and insert it in the pdf form. The users will NOT have the photos saved on their local hard drives so ideally, they will see thumbnails or a preview of the available photos and then select and insert the photo they want to use.
Is this possible? If so, how do I go about this? Right now, all I can find are ways to insert a photo located on the users local hard drive.
Hopefully someone can answer my question.

George, I'm not sure where the photos would go or how to include them. I'm a complete newbie when it comes to making pdf forms so i'm not sure if it's even possible.
I'm planning to make a flier. I want the end user to be able to choose the photo displayed on the flier - the photos would be ones that I choose and supply. I know I could just make four different fliers, but I thought it would be more efficient if I had one flier and gave the Reader user the ability to select the photo they like.
Does this sound possible to you?

How do I create a Pdf form for others?

I have finally figured out how to make a pdf form, but my client wants to be able to attach the file to his e-mail and send it to his relations.
How do I create a pdf form with his adress in stead of my own e-mailaccount?
Tried to adjust my id in the preferences on my Mac, but that is not a safe way I guess...
Can anybody help me out, I'm stuck...
Bob

Yes, I want to enable the client's relations to be able to click on a link
in the pdf to automatically submit the pdf to his e-mail address.
Now a purple bar shows up when a 'relation' opens the pdf form.
In this bar is a button included for sending the form, but they have to
confirm the adding of their reaction to the 'reactions-file'. This refers to
the location where I authenticallly saved the file (on my hard disk).
I can adjust the reply e-mail adress by temporarily adjusting my id in
Acrobat preferences, but I don't know the future location of the reaction
file.
It's a difficult question, but it's based on the question: Is it possible to
make a pdf form for somebody else; so they can send en receive the reactions
on their moment and their wanted location?

I've created a PDF form using Adobe acrobat. I created the forms from a PDF that I made using pages

I've created a PDF form using Adobe acrobat. I created the forms from a PDF that I made using pages and word on Mac running Mountain lion. How do I allow the user of the form to insert JPEG files when filling out the form and how do I allow the user to add more fields or groups of fields as needed.

The type of form yo're describing is possible if you create it in LiveCycle Designer. It may also be possible in Acrobat, but there are certain restrictions. The type of form is known as a dynamic XFA form. LiveCycle Designer is not available on the Mac, so you'd have to install the software on a Windows machine and learn how to create this type of form. The LiveCycle Designer forum here is a good resource for getting more help.
Reader 11 now supports creating new pages using templates with a form that you create in Acrobat (Acroform). This requires some JavaScript programming. It also adds support for using a button to display a page from a PDF, which can be an image or anything else a PDF can be. So the user would click a button, be prompted to import a page from an existing PDF, and the button (or a different button) displays it as its icon. This would require the user to convert the image to PDF first, which is relatively easy these days (e.g., using Preview on the Mac, or Word on Mac/Windows). This too involves a bit of JavaScript programming, but it's very simple and straightforward.

Basically you would need Acrobat. However, it is now also possible to create basic form fields using just the free Reader. In fact, I've been working on a tool that allows you to do it, so if you're interested in it please contact me privately.

Is there a way to create a PDF form that ANYONE can fill out and SAVE with their content?

Is there a way to create a PDF form that ANYONE can fill out and SAVE with their content? By anyone, I mean someone who can download and use the free Adobe Reader, on either a Mac or PC. I have Acrobat Pro, and would like to be able to create forms that can not only be filled out and printed, but saved and emailed, which is not an option with the forms I have created to date. They can be filled out, but not saved, with Adobe Reader.
TIA,
Nancy

To do what Dave indicated you need to do, it depends on what version of Acrobat you have:
Acrobat 8: Advanced > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader
Acrobat 9: Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader
Acrobat 10: File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features
Acrobat 11: File > Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)
I wonder what it will be next time?
