Once you have that, then you can add a print button which would either use the "printFrom" command (I'm not sure, but I think it will capture any text that has been entered into the fields), or using imaging Lingo to grab a portion or the whole stage and print that.
Sending the information online is much more complicated. To do that, there are two basic options, sending email, or sending information to a server using postNetText. If you want to send information via email, I would recommend the DirectEmail XTRA. Using postNetText, you must write code to extract information out of each field, build up a property list, and send that property list to a server that is listening for such information.
Good luck,

Hello list,
What is the best way for creating interactive and printable forms? My client wants a page / area where a user can fill up a form and be able to print it as well. Whilst I'm here on this topic. I am also interested in sending the forms information via online. So, this way the users have two options? Print the filled up form, or send online via email or other method?
Any suggestions are appreciated. I have never done this before.
Thanks..
Elvin..
