Can fillable/interactives pdfs be posted to a webpage? I need to post a form to a webpage where conference registrants can go to type in their names. Not distribute the form as an email, that only increases the amount of manual work. And when I exported the form I created, it shows up as a link but doesn't have the fields of first and last name.

Hi michelles91033014,

Yes, you can upload you interactive PDF on the website.

  • Upload the PDF on the web server.
  • Embed this code <a href="<path>/acrobat_file.pdf">pdf file</a> in your website.
  • Or you can also use the <iframe> tag to embed the PDF

Please look for the HTML codes to embed the PDF in your website.

Regards,

Aadesh

Thank you. I am working on a CMS (content management system) website through Hunter College the City University of New York (which has a site license for Adobe Acrobat XI (I will have further questions on upgrading at a later time). Neither <a href="<path>/acrobat_file.pdf">pdf file</a> or <iframe> worked in the HTML function/window. There is already HTML code in the window for what it looks like the existing page. I added the first and second codes you suggested but the first changed to:

<p><a href="&lt;path&gt;/acrobat_file.pdf">pdf file</a></p> and the second did not copy into the window at all.

What is confusing is that the HTML codes do not seem to be connected to the fillable/interactive pdf.

Please advise.
