I need the submit button to send me the email without the client side email program poping up.  I want it to work like a form submit buttom only I want the pdf file sent to my email.  The mailto: option calls the email client.  Is their a server side script or way to do this I'm using acrbat 9 pro.

I'm using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 and have the same problem.

I changed the line <submit format="pdf" textEncoding="UTF-8" target="mailto:"/> and nothing happened

Can anybody helpme pl

Years late, I know. But I'll post this for others

like me who founds this thread while googling for an anwser.

What I finaly did:

Found the line:

<submit format="xml" textEncoding="UTF-8" target="mailto:"/>

changed it to:

<submit format="pdf" textEncoding="UTF-8" target="mailto:"/>

resaved document, and it worked.
