Setting a form Submit button to send to multiple email addresses.

I have a form that, when completed, needs to be sent to three email addresses. I have added them in the Properties/Actions area, but when I test the form, it only shows the form as being sent to my email address, which is not one of the addresses entered in the Actions area. What am I missing on this? Thank you in advance for any help.

Hi,

Thank you, if i woulkd like to link several manual input emails together do i format it like so:?

this.mailDoc({cTo: "email1@test.co.uk;" + this.getField("Cust Email").valueAsString, cCc: "email2@test.co.uk;" + this.getField("Op Email").valueAsString, + (";") + this.getField("Op Email2").valueAsString, + (";") + this.getField("Op Email3").valueAsString,

Almost. Drop the commas after valueAsString (except for the last one), and the parentheses around the semi-colon strings.

How exactly did you set up the Submit button?

In the Prepare Form tool, I clicked on the button icon and added the Submit and a couple of other buttons.

Within the submit button properties, I set the label options (Icon and Label) and in the actions tab, I chose 'Execute a menu item' - Submit a form. I then edited it to mail to the three addresses separated by a ; and set it to send the complete PDF document.

I typically always set the properties under Edit > Identity > to match the email address as I have had issues in the past if I didn't. That area will not allow you to enter more than one email address and move forward, unless I'm doing something wrong there.

You added the wrong command. See: Setting action buttons in PDF forms, Adobe Acrobat
