PDF form and send box doesn't work - halp!

Question

Hi everyonethis is Vince from Italy.I’m using Acrobat DC for a form.I’m creating an order form that will be added inside my website.it’s a simple page with the customer data and in the bottom name, price and quantity of the item.in the program preview it works fine: when i type the quantity it does the calculation and the total is correct. but when i export the PDF i can only type in the boxes and nothing happens.an other issue i have is the send option. I've added a box that should send the PDF via mail to my account but it doesn’t work.can anyone help me please?[This was posted in the Adobe Acrobat Reader forum.

That's not exporting it. It's just opening it using another application. It's possible to do, of course, but for best results you should really stick with Adobe Acrobat/Adobe Reader. Apple Preview, for example, is known to corrupt PDF forms as soon as it opens them...

What you mean with "export the pdf" ? In Adobe Acrobat you need only save the file.
