Extract and Save Pages with a Button

I am really struggling on this one.
 
I have a 150 page catalog with pages and form fields. I want to be able to have the customer fill out an individual page and save it external to the catalog. The customers will be using Windows, I am developing on Mac OSX.
 
I am extracting the page ok using a button, but it doesn't save. It looks like I need to work with the app.browseForDoc method, but I just can't seem to grasp the concept. Can the action Javascript in one document carry into the extracted document.
 
I read the Doc File Browser, Part 3 tutorial and think this is related, but...
 
All help with be appreciated.

Check Ted Padova's book titled - "Creating Adobe Acrobat Forms" ISBN 0-7645-3690-7. Read - Merging Form Data page 308 - 315. This information may be useful in solving this problem.
