Simple Question abbout email/submit

I'm so embarrased about asking this but I've only just started to learn Adobe Designer 7.
I' m learning through the Livecylcle  Designer Help before I start purchasing books.
I'm learning and creating ok but the 'Submit' button is nagging me in the back of my mind.
I create a form with a 'Submit by email' button and send it to a friend to fill and return to me.
When it returns to me it comes back as data, xml I think.
I'd like the pdf sent back instead of data.  I may learn this later on but it's niggling at me why it's comimg back
as data instead of a pdf doc.
I probably haven't gotten to this part of the instruction yet.  Is it a setting or something.
I'm very computer literate but really a fish out of water with this.
Basically i need some advice.
Mario

Please go back to the main forum page and select LiveCycle from the drop down list and repost your question.

  • Simple question .... how to add photos to the body of my EMAILS -Found 1000 results for How do I add photos to my emails for Thunderbird

    Simple question - How do I add photos to the body of my emails . But instead of the answer - Found 1000 results for How do I add photos to my emails for Thunderbird. There are answers that don't apply at all to the question in anyway. Why does it have to be so hard to get a simple answer to a simple question?
    Thunderbird is acting much like Microsoft, the every reason I dumping MS Live Mail.

    First of all, much help for Thunderbird refers to menus which may not be visible. It would help you and us if you have your menus and toolbars visible.
    http://chrisramsden.vfast.co.uk/13_Menus_in_Thunderbird.html
    So, open a write window. Enable its menu and toolbar(s).
    Now do you see an "Insert" option?
    If not, you may be set to compose in plain text, which does not support embedded images.
    '''[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences_in_Windows,_Linux,_and_Mac Tools|Account Settings]|{select account}|Composition & Addressing''' and ensure "Compose messages in HTML format" is ticked. If it wasn't already ticked, go back to composing a message. Any better now?
    Once you have HTML composition mode going, you can use '''Insert|Image''' or various permutations of copy-and-paste and drag-and-drop into your message body.

  • This might be a simple question.   On those sites that do not differentiate between models when on the internet I.e. Facebook when after your comment and you cannot hit "enter" on an iPad for examp. And speed is slow to connect.  What is = to post?

    This might be a simple question. On those sites that do not differentiate between CRT, laptop, tablet etc. such as an iPad Mini and using the Facebook site fir example when going to post a comment and you do not have a enter button on the IPad and the speed is slow how do you get your comments to post if we do not have a enter button? 
    <Email Edited By Host>

    I don't have facebook so I cannot answer but for your personal security, I have asked the hosts to remove your e-mail address.   It is very unwise to publish this.

  • Email Submit and Data format

    I have been reviewing the following document and have 1 question.
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/articles/lc_understanding_submit_tip.pdf
    Is there a way to customize the data format using a submit button?
    I may have the requirement to have end users submit data through an email submit button, but the client wants the data in the format Fieldname [delimiter of some sort] Fieldvalue, is this possible?  Would you need to manually edit the xml in the form to do this? Any pointers would be appreciated.
    The only options I see in the attributes of the email submit button are:
    XDP
    XML
    PDF
    URL encoded data
    Thank you,

    Hi Paul:
    Currently we are using Acroforms and would use these forms originally.
    In the future, this would be used with LiveCycle so it would probably be an XFA/LiveCycle Designer form. I believe in this case, the best solution would be to do this through a submit using Form Server components of LCES.
    Thank you,

  • Email submit

    Is it possible to email a PDF to 2 different people in 2 different formats? From a single user click on a Submit button I want to:
    1. Silently email a copy in XDP format to a predefined addressee.
    2. Bring up Outlook with the PDF document attached and the To: field blank.
    I know from Javascript I can use the doc.mailDoc method. I also know there is an Email Submit button. Just not sure if these can be combined. It tried it and it doesn't appear to work.

    Hi,
    Hope this question isn't too far off, but it sounds like you may know the answer based on this thread. I have been able to dynamically create my XDP file and call it in a web browser to open up the PDF, but I want to now save that generated PDF file (but I can only manage to grab the XDP from the server side). Do you know a way to get the PDF as well (using Java or preferably some Adobe technique outside of Form server or extenions).
    Thanks.

  • Email submit button using drop down boxes, cc field and

    I have a form that I would like to have the employees use a drop down box that already exists on the form with names and email addresses and use those names in the to field of an email submit button.  Also, I do have a static cc: address in teh cc field and for the subject of the email to use  an existing field such as the name field as the subject of the email and attach the form to it.

    I tried that but it  does not seem to be working.  I am a JavaScript Novice.  I am trying  to use the mailto field based on email addresses in a dropdown box, a static cc field like cc: [email protected] and for the subject to be based on the company name field on the form.  But before all of that I want to make sure all the required fields are filled out.  help I have been working on this for over a year.  It may seem simple but it's not working.

  • Email Submit Button problem

    I used the Email Submit Button on a couple of forms but it is not working. It creates an email, but the attachment is in .xml format. If I change it to Submit As: PDF, it does not create any email at all. I would like it to create an email with an attachment in pdf format that keeps all the user entered data. Impossible?

    Hi,
    Try doing the following
    try using the simple 'Button'. In the button's object properties, in the tab named 'field', select 'Control Type: submit'.
    Then, in the 'submit' tab in the object properties, choose PDF in the 'submit format' dropdown field.
    In the 'submit to URL field' type:
    mailto:nameataddress.com?subject=mySubject&body=Done
    You may need to adjust the e-mail address, subject and body text.

  • Pdf Email submit - Mac compatibility

    I have created a simple form in Windows XP with an email submit button on it. The Mac user can fill the form out, but is not able to submit it by email. Should I expect them to be able to submit this form by email? If not, what options do I have.
    Regards,
    Drew

    E-mail submission is not recommended, even if it is discussed in the manual. Such submission depends too much on the client machine setup and you have probably run into that with a MAC. You should always submit form data to a web site for processing. You may need to use the FDF Toolkit or such.
    Actually, this remark applies to the mailto that folks try to use for HTML forms also. It is a can of worms and is not recommended even in HTML.

  • Email body copy created by email submit button

    The body of a message created by the email submit button contains the following copy:
    "The attached file contains data that was entered into a form. It is not the form itself.
    The recipient of this data file should save it locally with a unique name. Adobe Acrobat Professional 7 or later can process this data by importing it back into the blank form or creating a spreadsheet from several data files. See Help in Adobe Acrobat Professional 7 for more details."
    How do I prevent this, or change the default copy?

    jimmy,
    I've also followed your advice. FYI I'm using LiveCycle Designer 7.1. My only problem is that I can't use HTML markup inside the HTTP Submit Button's URL attribute.
    For example, a
    tag in the HTTP Submit Button's URL attribute appears as just that inside the email body copy:
    . There's no line break.
    The default "Submit by Email" body copy message has a paragraph break as seen below:
    The attached file contains data that was entered into a form. It is not the form itself.
    The recipient of this data file should save it locally with a unique name. Adobe Acrobat Professional 7 or later can process this data by importing it back into the blank form or creating a spreadsheet from several data files. See Help in Adobe Acrobat Professional 7 for more details.
    My question is, how can I add HTML markup in the email body copy? Can this be done with the HTTP Submit button's URL attribute or can the Email Submit Button be customized to change the above email body copy?

  • Changing xml in LiveCycle to enable pdf email submit

    I've read quite a a bit about my question.  Which is:  can I change the xml code in LiveCycle of an interactive pdf to make it work when displayed in a browser?  I've read
    Form submit / eMail demystified, but quite honestly I cannot quite grasp it.  I did find people asking the question in another forum and someone posted the following: "
    What I finaly did:
    Found the line:
    <submit format="xml" textEncoding="UTF-8" target="mailto:"/>
    changed it to:
    <submit format="pdf" textEncoding="UTF-8" target="mailto:"/>
    resaved document, and it worked."
    This post was a few years old however.  I tried it and my code looks like this:
    <submit textEncoding="UTF-16" xdpContent="pdf datasets xfdf" format="pdf" target="mailto:
    I'm assuming because it's a newer version of Acrobat.
    Can anyone tell me what I would need to change my code to in order for the email submit button to work, or if it indeed will require me to find someone to script something for me.
    Thanks,
    Scott

    If I understand your problem correctly you want to submit a document by email as a PDF vice XML. If this is correct all you have to do is open the Object Library (Shift F7), select the Submit tab and change the Submit dropdown option from XML to PDF.
    I hope this helps.

  • Have a window pop up after email submit button is clicked

    Is there a way to have a pop up occur after a user has pressed the email submit button? I need to have a reminder pop up as the form is submitted. Thank you in advance!

    Have you gotten an answer to this question yet?
    Here's what I did:
    I created a regular button with the following script on the "click event"
    EmailSubmitButton.execEvent("click");
    Then created another button (EmailSubmitButton)with the Control Type set to Submit; Submit to url should be: mailto:[email protected]; and Submit as PDF (if you want the actual form to come back to you) or XML (if you just want the data).
    Then I added a script under the EmailSubmitButton's PreSave Event, which states:
    app.alert("Your Form Has Been Submitted.");
    I distribute my form using the Adobe 8 Wizard and it works great.
    I would like to add a script that closes the form after submission. The script I found is
    app.execMenuItem("Close");
    This script is placed on the next line following the above app.alert message under the EmailSubmitButton. It works fine if you send the form manually via email, but Adobe has an error message when I try to distribute it.
    If anyone can help me with this issue. I would really appreciate it.
    Thanks,
    Jen
