Hi Christine,
What you have mentioned is a very common request. Many people are looking for practical and economical solution for users with Acrobat Reader to fill, edit, save, and e-mail the fill-ed up form. Some will recommend the Acrobat Approval, but you need to buy/install the software for every user; some may recommend the Acrobat Document Server, but you have to consider your budget. We provide an alternative solution, but the users will need to be connected to the Internet during their editing/saving operation. See the following link for demonstration

I've been reading recent discussions with great interest as the sole purpose for subscribing to this forum was to find a way to create a PDF file with form fields that can be emailed to customers, filled out, and emailed back. When my employer purchased Acrobat 6, it was strictly for creating PDF files. When I realized it could create form fillable PDF files, I was very pleased. This solved a huge problem for us. However, the fact that you can create the form but lose the functionality with the reader is disappointing.
My opinion is that Adobe dropped the ball on this one. If you can create a PDF file with the ability to be an interactive form, why wouldn't you allow the "reader" to fill it out and then at the very least save it and email it somewhere? I would not consider asking a customer to purchase anything to be able to use a form. Some of them still complain about downloading the reader (alas, not everyone is up to date technology wise). So, we will continue to use what is "mainstream" and cost effective to serve our customers and facilitate communication. If anyone has any suggestions, please respond. I'd love to find a way to make this work, but not at further expense.
Thanks for listening!
Christine.
