I have a expense form that I am required to FAX.

However I also have to fax a number of additional pages as proof of expedience.

Even with Adobe pro, it does not allow me to Attach / Insert pages from file.

Thus I have to do a form, fax. Then open my other pdf doc and then fax again.

1: How can I add a function to the existing form that will allow me to browse to my doc folder etc and attach one or more pdf files to my form. Such that I can select print (FAX) and all pages are sent to the printer (FAX).

2: Can this be done such that it if a user only has Adobe Reader it still functions the same ?.

1. LiveCycle Designer does not integrate well into Acrobat. IF the form is created in Acrobat using the Form Tool then pages could be inserted into the PDF. It appears that using JavaScript in LiveCycle Designer might be able to open another PDF, so one could make a custom print button to print multiple documents, but each PDF sent to the printer will be treated as a separate print job and not one continuous document.


2. Reader can not insert or delete pages under circumstances or granting of any rights..
