am a graphic designer with little scripting experience. i want to put a fillable pdf form on a website. i know how to create the form. however, i do not know how to put it on the web. i need it to function like this.
1 customer fills out the form
2 customer clicks a submit button
3 form is sent to an email account with all the customer's info included
any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
You add a Submit button by creating a Button field and in the Actions tab in the Field Properties, choose Submit a form and then click Add. A dialog box opens. At the top of the dialog box in the first field type: mailto:email address. Don't forget to add mailto with a colon, then type the email address you want the user to send back to you.
If your returned forms are less than 500, be sure to enable the form with Adobe Reader usage rights and the Reader user can submit the entire PDF form back to you as well as save the field data on their end.
