Hello,

I have pdf fillable form online and I have request when user clicks on submit button that form with data can be stored on the server where later we can pull-out the form manually and be in the pdf or word format. Can it be possible?

Thanks,
Yash

All things are possible.

You need a server side script for handling the submit. If you are not a programmer then I would suggest going with a 3rd party tool. There are serveral out there. Some plug-n-play, and other that require a litte work. Here are the ones that come to mind right off.

1. www.formrouter.com - online form data service
2. www.techedsolutions - ultimate PDF server
3. www.activepdf.com - PDF server tools
