Is it possible that when an employee complete the form in the Reader, they can save the form with the completed data to their hard drive
or
can you only save a copy of the "blank" form?
Please help

Hi Emm,

Yes, a fillable PDF form created in Acrobat 9 Professional ( or 9 Stnd) can be filled out and saved in the free Adobe Reader IF it has Reader Rights applied to it by the creator with Acrobat.

After the form is complete, as a LAST step go to "Advanced" and select "Extend Features in Adobe Reader", then follow the prompts from there.

Your questions is probably the #1 most asked question in these forums. Since it is your first post I'de like to point you to the FAQ here, in case there are already answers available to some other questions you may have-
