Adding the "image field" in a form without using LiveCycle...

Anonymous

Is there a way that I can add an "image field" to a form without using LiveCycle Designer? What I'm really looking for is to add a form field where the user can click on it and direct them to a drive or location on their computer to choose their image file. However, the file will be used as an FDF so that my company can collect the data. Is this possible without using LiveCycle?

You can create a button field in Acrobat and to import an image onto your form. The problem is if you try to import an image on a form created in Acrobat Std/Pro using Adobe Reader, the button won't prompt you with a Browse dialog box. However, you can do this in Designer.
