Adding submitted pdf files to response file

Guest
Jun 09, 2016 Jun 09, 2016

I've created a submission form with Adobe X Pro for my business unit to submit statistical data to my department. I did not use the Adobe distribution tool because I wanted to set up multiple email recipients via a dynamic submission button. I am looking for the best way to collect all the emailed pdf submissions into a response file.

The problem I am running into with the current workflow is that I have to save each individual pdf onto a dedicated folder, and rename the individual files because they are all the same, and then manually add the files onto a response file. I would then extract the data monthly into an excel spreadsheet.

Is there a way to use JavaScript to automatically add the emailed pdf into a response file (similar to how the Adobe distribution tool works)?

Is there a more efficient way I should be doing this process to begin with??

Thank you!

Depends on what type of server you are running. If you are able to use iText (Java) or iTextSharp (.net); then you could parse each form that way and bundle the data into an XML database; or create rows in an SQL or Access database.

See examples #2, #3, #4 at the following website: (including source code)
