    Default Setting up forms that people can use

    I'm setting up an area within my PDF where a user can fill in information, then send the form in to me or send it elsewhere. The problem comes in when they need to save it with the text they've entered.

    Does Acrobat 7 (Mac) allow users to fill in forms I've created, then save them to their desktop? Or send them anywhere else?

    I don't know if this will help, but this has been my temp. fix for now.

    When the person uses the free version of Acrobat Reader they cannot save the file inorder to email back to you. However, they can print it.

    Here is the loop. Print>Preview ...when in this screen, the person can now save it as a file. Then at that point email the file to you. The nice thing about this is, that in reality, the file sent to you no longer comes with the fil-in feature. Thus, within reason, the info cannot be changed.

    Hope this helps.
