Hi nheuberger,

Yes, PDF forms can include calculations and perform quite sophisticated mathematic functions. There are sample files in the Gallery here at AUC ( Gallery is on top menu bar) and you may also want to check out the sample forms that are included in LiveCycle Designer. If you have LiveCycle Designer open bring up the Welcome screen from the Help menu and then you can click on the Explore Sample Files- I believe the Dynamic Order form shows column and row totals.

Hope this helps,

Dimitri
