Import/Export Fillable Form Data as FDF on mobile app or web browser?

Is it possible to import/export form data using the Acrobat mobile app or web browser?  I need to be able to fill out a fillable PDF form and then export and save the data as an FDF file so that I can then import that data into other fillable forms-- I need to be able to do this all on my iPhone. 

The fillable forms have already been created, so that's not an issue.  I don't need to save the form data as a spreadsheet, or submit to a database and the forms won't be sent out for signatures or anything like that- this is purely to help reduce the number of times I have to retype the same information

(note: The fields on each form require different custom formatting scripts than the same fields on the other forms, so I can't just combine into one PDF to get filled at the same time)

Hi @LG1901,

 

Hope you are doing well. Per the description, you want to export data from a Form to FDF. 

 

Custom scripts are only supported on the desktop version of the application. We would like to hear more about this. Would you mind sharing more about it here: https://acrobat.uservoice.com/

 

Hope this clarifies your question.
