Hi!
I am a graphical designer with no coding knowledge.
I've created a PDF with embedded files so it is quite large in size.
Seeing as it's too big to e-mail, i've decided to upload it to our webpage so people can view it online.
The problem:
I need to add a "comments" field on the last page with a submit button that sends the comment to an email.
Can this be done? ( This has a non-commercial output so I require a free solution )
I understand that a simple e-mail button could be used, but i know many users will be without email software.
Also saving the form out and attaching it to an e-mail is too much work for our usergroup.
I would also be very happy with the PDF uploading the form data somewhere as a simple notepad file.
Any input is much appreciated.
Thanks!
Submitting to the server-side script, you are able to read the FDF request input stream (Stream) or request input buffer (Byte array) from the PDF Form Submission, and save it to a file or attach it to an e-mail message.
Note:
A server-side e-mail would not require the client to use any type of e-mail software.
Note:
If you want to get real fancy, then parse the FDF data from the PDF submission using "FREE" iText products, and save the comments to a database; or directly insert the comments inside an e-mail message body.
Note:
If you need programming support, but, don't want to spend hundreds of dollars, then, purchase a copy of FDF Toolkit .net, from http://www.fdftoolkit.net/, and get 1 year of free support.
Note:
If you lack programming skills, then, purchase a copy of PDFEmail.net, http://www.pdfemail.net, which uses iTextSharp and FDFToolkit.net technologies. PDFEmail.net creates the ASP.net script for you, so their zero programming knowledge required.
