This is a starting point and hopefully a solution to a problem I'm having. I have completed my 8 page interactive form using Livecycle, a lot of Javascript, and great support and information on this site!
Okay, so we are ready for our production testing, posting the PDF on our companies Intranet for the end user to fill out form. Well, once the link is opened, it opens within the browser with the PDF plugin, which basically hoses up the entire interactive form!!! Our company as IE set at version 6.0 and won't budge on upgrading, in case that would help with plugin. Having user right click and save as is an option, but many of end users are not computer savvy.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance...
You can also set up Acrobat/Reader to only display PDFs in the stand alone Acrobat/Reader from the Preferences. On the Preferences Internet Tab, turn off "Display PDF in Browser". This can also be done for a Reader distribution in the "Custimization Wizard". If you are using this tool to create Reader installers.
