Hello,

I'm creating a form that users will download from a client website, fill out and email back to the client. Currently, we own the 5.5 version of Acrobat standard. We would like to embed a Submit button in the document itself, but we are running into an issue.

When we add a button to submit the PDF by email, a dialog box appears that prompts the user to select how they would like to submit the form. I would like to disable this dialog and just have the script just create a new email in the user's email client application, attach the pdf with the data and send it to an internally specified email address (which should be populated in the To: field of the created email).

We also looked to upgrading to Acrobat 8 Professional, but the embedded submission buttons just send an xml data file, not the entire form, which is what is required by the client.

If this can be done in Acrobat 5.5, it would be nice. If it can be done in Acrobat 8, my company is more than willing to upgrade.

Any assistance in this issue would be appreciated, thanks.

Christoff
