Question

Submitting an Acrobat Pro form - cannot find "Button Properties"

I have a very large Acrobat form that has been embedded into our website, and right now it sends me (the website administrator) and the person filling out the form emails with a copy of the completed form. However, there's another person in our team who really needs to see this information, and she's not getting a copy. 

 

1) Does she need to be added to the account in order to receive the email? 

2) I cannot find the "Button Properties" anywhere in Acrobat Pro (using a Mac), so I cannot change the recipients or even the type of response (we might want the data and not a copy of the form). 

 

Adobe's support team apparently doesn't work weekends, so I can't ask them. Thanks for your help, community!

    Is this a web-based form, or a regular PDF file? If the latter, all you need to do is add that person's email address to the mailto URL of your button. To edit the button go to Prepare Form mode, then right-click it and select Properties and look under the Actions tab. You should have done that before when you've set it up originally, anyway...

    It's a web-based form. And even when I was trying to post it as a regular
    PDF file, there was no way to add a button. I followed the instructions in
    the help files to the letter, but there was no button... and no way to edit
    it. So I made it a web-based form, which adds the button when the form
    shows up on the website. Still no way to add change or edit the button,
    since it only appears when Acrobat Send displays the form.
