I've been trying to find a way to add a PRINT button and a SAVE button to a PDF document. In other words instead of having people
go to File - Save or click on the save disk or File - Print or click on the printer I want 2 big buttons they can push.

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 8, Windows

These will both be buttons and will have the same process except for the Action applied (the last step).
Click on the OK in the forms toolbar, then draw a button. Name your button. Then Click on the Appearance tab and give it a border and color. Next click on Options>Label Only (This should be the default). For the label type in "Click Here to Save"(or whatever you want the button to say). Click on the Action tab and Execute a Menu Item, click on Add and Select "Save As" or "Save a Copy As" and then "Print" for the other button.
