I Need Advice On Fillable Forms.

Posted by Anonymous on 8/17/2005 at 6:37 PM ET 250 Points
I would like to modify an existing ebook with forms which would be printed and stored as a hard copy booklet filled with pen or pencil.

My goal is to have the forms filled digitally, saved, and transferred to other interested parties. A future editing need is also desireable. When conditions change within the recorded information, the form can be updated, and forwarded to the same group of existing interested parties.

I have looked at Acrobat 4 & 5, with no help... and evaluated 7.0 today with no help.

Any ideas?

    Have you had a look at macromedia "flash paper"?

    www.macromedia.com/software/flashpaper/ (i think it might do what you want), it might be best to buy your copy before September as Adobe will buy out macromedia then then prices are going to sky rocket.

    Well, want good advice, I've personally used it for creating forms and it's absolutely marvelous:

    Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0 w/ Adobe Designer

    You could create forms on Adobe Desinger and publish them as PDF formats that any Adobe Acrobat could read and fill. It's really great with forms, go to the following for more info:


    https://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/main.html

    P.S after all, they are PDFs (Portable Document Files)

    Regards,

    Yes actually, Metty is absolutely correct regarding the compatibility issue. In order to read the forms that are developed over Adobe Designer, you'd need either Acrobat v. 7 or I think v. 6. But anyways it ain't that much of a hassle cause v. 7 reader could be downloaded for free.

    Cheers and good luck!
