Hi
I run Acrobat 7 Pro. I'm creating a form that can be filled in online and submitted by email. Form works, sends email, email arrives, I import data back into form with Acrobat and all is well.

Now I need to go to the client and show them how to do it when the site is live. Do they need to Acrobat Pro or will Acrobat Standard perform this "Import Data to Current Form" function? I'm not sure what version they have... 7 or 8?
thanks

According to the Acrobat JavaScript Reference manual, any version of Acrobat version 4 or above can import an FDF file, version 5 for the XFDF file. No version of Reader can import an FDF, unless the PDF form that is open has had Extended Reader File Rights extended to the form.
