Why answer a question with a question? Clearly they dont want to do it that way... or they wouldn't have asked! I can think of several reasons a developer wouldn't want to rely on a end user to figure out how to open an attachmet pane when it could "simply" (as you put it) be displayed automatically and within the document. Golly I hope you're not the "Community Expert" on any other posts! ... View more

Yes, that's possible, but it will not work in Reader. There you can only set the fields as read-only, but a better option is to have the user sign the file, and set the signature field to lock all the fields when signed. ... View more

You will need to either perform this validation yourself (I've posted code here that does that, search for "validateRequiredFields"), or use the submitForm command instead of mailDoc, which does it for you. Note that submitForm takes different kinds of input parameters, though. ... View more

Thank you for replying! Sorry I was not clear, I am asking about the script from JR_Boulay:  I am not sure how to incorporate that into my form, do I add the script below to the submit button, and if so not sure how to adjust my existing script (which is included in my previous reply) to include this additional code? I appreciate any advice! var emptyTest = /^\s*$/;    for(var i=0;i<this.numFields;i++) {    var nameField = this.getNthFieldName(i);    var fld = this.getField(nameField);          if(fld.type=="text") {              if(fld.required) {                  if(emptyTest.test(fld.value)) {                      fld.strokeColor = rougeCorporate;                      }                  }              }          }  ...

Check out the following online tool that may help create the script: nk-inc.com/software/fdftoolkit.net/email-pdf-mailto-generator.aspx 1) To remove usage rights, you can open the PDF in Acrobat, and "Save-As" a new form 2) Then edit the submit button to include the new javascript action on the mouse up event 3) Just copy the script generated from the link above and paste it into the button's javascript action 4) Save the form (enabling usage rights may not be needed with certain email functions) ...

I like the solution by NKOWA555 .  XML is very easy to handle for the manual solution.  It's simple, direct, and can be expanded on later with some automation and workflow variations. Although I haven't tried it yet, I suspect  Excel might require you to walk through an import wizard to get the data where you want it. But even with this it's a good scheme. I do not like the built-in Acrobat Distribution functionality. This has been around since Acrobat X. Its a very simple single source workflow with few options. It works great if that workflow is what you want. One of the problems is that it only works on the computer on which it is created. Someone can't set it up for you.  There are other issues, for example its not modifiable or expandable into other methodologies.  ... View more

Hello, I am just discovering the form in Acrobat x pro. It's easy to create a form from a model or from scratch but I need help to finalize the validation and Send form. I would like to lock the form after it had been filled and sent. The idea is to not permit to the users to reuse the form after validation. Is it possible ? Should I used the javascript ? If yes, how to add the code in the form ? thanks in advance ... View more

If you are running ASP.net on a local or remote web server, you can setup an ASP.net script to merge a blank Acrobat PDF with a MS Access record and output the PDF to the browser's buffer. This method requires some programming knowledge. If you can't do it yourself, you can hire a professional developer such as myself. ... View more
