I have created a form using LiveCycle Designer 8.0 and require that the user not be able to save a form (though we would allow a Save As) but have the ability to email the form, with all fields completed, as a pdf file (using the a regular button with a mailto: command).
I have the form and button working. When I use Acrobat 8 to Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader the end user has the ability to Save the form. Since the form will reside on a server accessable to all employees we cannot permit the form to be changed and "publish" information for others to see. The form should always be empty when on the server.
When I edit the form in LiveCycle Designer 8.0 and do NOT use the Enable Usage Rights the user can not save the data. However, the email button that I created no longer works.
How do I a) Prohibit Saving a form to the server, but allow a Save As to thier hard drive to include data (as an option in the design of the form) and b) Email the form, with data intact and visible on screen and for printing, to the pre-determined email address so that the pre-determined recipient can view/print the form and data?
Would it be possible to have an Action execute when the form is opened (or closed) to clear all fields (without affecting the emailed version, just the original file on the server) so that the recipient has the data displayed?
Even creating the form and Not ebabling Usage Rights would work, IF the button to send the PDF via email were to function.
I am a novice and still learning LiveCycle and have only the most rudementary understanding of JavaScript.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
