Just a simple question from a non-programmer: can an Acrobat 9 PDF send form data to be recorded in an external .swf file? (in other words, the .swf is not embedded in the host PDF) Thanks.

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 9.0, Windows

Not directly, and not on the client side. However, Acrobat can send data to a server script, which cold update the flash.
