Fillable form editing/saving in Acrobat Reader 8

I am doing some research into a possible use case.

Author has Acrobat 8
User has Acrobat Reader 8.1.4

Author creates/updates a fillable form.
User downloads the form
User fills in the form
User saves the form
User opens saved form
User edits values in saved form
User saves the edited form again.

Is this use case possible with the above product combination? If not, what would be the minimum requirements to get there?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Standard 8.1.4, Windows

Hi adobeuser111,

Yes, this is all possible if you meant the author has Acrobat 8 Professional and the form filler has Adobe Reader 8.

Hope this helps,

I have a pdf fillable form (designedin Livecycle) that we have on our Sharepoint site. It is user enabled so that someone can fill it in and save. We want them to save it to their computer, not to save it back to the sharepoint server. How can this be done? Is there a way to make someone use the "Save As" instead of the "Save" button?
Thanks.
