Update: I just tried your test_form.pdf in Windows Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 and the forms function *does* work! I can select the dropdowns, select the character, check the boxes, click the radio buttons, fill in the text box, everything. I then print out my filled in document to PDFCreator as a PDF, and everything is as I filled it in. In AR5 (Windows) under Help|About Adobe Acrobat Plugins| I list a plugin for Forms: AcroFill.api. Note: I've not tried yet in AR7 Windows. In my AR7 (Unix) I do *not* have this plugin. So, it appears that OOo *is* exporting the PDF properly. The problem is not having an Acrobat Reader "Forms" plugin in AR7 (linux). I'll hunt around and see if I can find one... However, remember that Adobe only added the linux version of AR recently, so they may not have gotten around to adding this plugin yet. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
