How to add a  Submit Button so that your client can email you the form data

Step 1: Create a Push Button Form Field.

Step 2: From New Push Button Field properties, click the Actions Tab and then click the Add Button.

 

Step 3: Select Action "Submit a Form" and select a trigger "Mouse Up". "Mouse Up" is the preferred trigger type for Push Button Form Field.

Email Form Data in FDF Format: mailto:test@yourmail.com?subject=My Subject&body=Here is my form data. Step 4: You must put your PDF Form under your Web Server to avoid "Html/text" error or "Unable to locate the form" error. Also, Adobe Reader 7.0 and later is recommended for your client to submit. If you put your PDF under your local computer, you may get a FDF file by adobe reader. But, this FDF file will not point to your local PDF. FDF is just a text file, you can open it with WordPad to see the difference. Please see the example http://www.pdfill.com/example/pdf_form_maker_new.pdf Step 5: Your client must have Email client installed. We recommend Microsoft Outlook.  Web Email (Gmail or Yahoo) is not supported by Adobe Reader. If this following window doesn't come up, you may need to uninstall and then reinstall Adobe Reader. After your client click the "Email Form Data" button, he should see this email window like this:   Step 6: After you receive this email, save that FDF into that client's file folder. You may have to rename that FDF using your client name. Click that FDF in your client's file folder and you should see the PDF Form filled as the same as that of the client in Step 4. Select to print your client filled form in any time. If you cannot open FDF file, please reinstall Adobe Reader so that Adobe Reader is the default viewer for FDF and PDF.
