Need to send Acrobat DC form submissions via encrypted e-mail

[flowgirl28]

I have a form with a submit button that works to send the completed forms to my e-mail. The problem is, I need these submitted forms to be sent via encrypted e-mail.  Is there a way to make the submit button a little less automated where it actually opens up an Outlook e-mail that the user can intervene and click "encrypt" prior to hitting "send"?

Yes,  It believe should already do that.

However, if you want to force the issue, use a script to send the email. One of the email parameters is "bUI", which when set to true, displays the email client UI before sending.

Not everyone is on Outlook, Acrobat uses what ever email client is installed, so it has no way to do anything application specific, except for displaying the email UI

Thank you.  Where can I set the "bUI" parameter to true?  Is it something I can do in this field? 

[Thom Parker]

No, unfortunately this feature is only in the scripted solution. Read the article.

Okay, bummer.  I'm not familiar with javascripts.  Even with the help of an article.  Thank you.

Hi Thom,

So I actually added the script to have the form e-mailed to me as a PDF attachment, with the e-mail client user interface opening up.  That part is exactly what I wanted.  But now, when I receive the forms the responses are not tracked in a response file like I need them to be.  How can I modify the script I used to have the data tracked in a response file?

this.mailDoc({
bUI: true,
cTo: "person@place.com",
cCC: "cc email address",
cSubject: "Returning x form",
cMsg: "Please see attached x form."
});

Responses are only tracked when you use the Distribute and Track features built into Acrobat.
