How do I imbed my form into my website so visitors can access and fill it?

I want to imbed my form into my website so anyone can access this, fill it out, and then once they do I will receive an e-mail notifying me of the filled form.

I purchased the document cloud function with Adobe and have created the form. I am able to e-mail it directly to someone and have them fill it out, but now I want them to be able to access it without having to wait for me to send it to them. Ideally there's a link I can put in my website that gives them access to this.

I have searched the forums and cannot find an answer. I go to my dashboard but there is no "create a widget" option.

Please help and thanks.

    Hi progressivep64979722,

    Step 1

    Upload your PDF to your Web server. The PDF doesn't have to reside on the same server as the HTML embed page. Make a note of the PDF file's location, which should look something like "http://www.yourdomain.com/files/your_file.pdf".

    Step 2

    Open the Web page where you wish to embed the PDF with an HTML or text editor. Download the file with an FTP program if you do not have an HTML editor that automatically does this for you.

    Step 3

    Locate the spot in the HTML code where you want the embedded PDF form to appear.

    Step 4

    Type the following embed code into the HTML:

    <embed src="http://www.yourdomain.com/files/your_file.pdf" width="xxx" height="xxx">

    Replace "xxx" with the pixel measurements of your PDF. This will vary from embed to embed, depending on the size of your PDF document.

    Step 5

    Save the HTML page and upload it to your Web server.

    Step 6

    Test out the embed by visiting the page with a Web browser. Make adjustments to the height and width of the embedded PDF, if needed, by re-editing the HTML file.
