How do you create a form using the "Email" functionality and allow the recipient to receive the email as a .PDF attachment as opposed to .xml format?

Thank you,

Russell

Emailing, or submitting, an entire PDF requires that the user have Acrobat Professional or if they are using Reader, that the PDF is "Reader Save Rights" enabled. Reader Rights enabling is done with either the LiveCycle Rights Server, or Acrobat 8 Professional. Acrobat Pro is cheaper;)

I understand that.

I was referring to the menu that asks if I would like to add an email or print button when I create a new form. If I choose to include the email button in my form, the email is sent to the recipient as a .xls or .php document and I wanted to know if it could be sent as a .pdf document. All I really want is the filled out form to be sent, not the spreadsheet containing the data.

Thanks for the help.

Thank you,

Russell
