Anyone have a good resource for info on creating Fillable Form PDFs?
I can do it using adobe designer but the only options are "print" and "email" and the email adds an xml attachment. I need them to be able to fill it out and save as a pdf.
Wow thats confusing, thanks in advance.

headache city - i did that once & the client got a bit miffed when they couldn't save the stuff they'd entered through Acrobat Reader..
ended up using word. worked a treat.

Ya, people with just Acrobat Reader can't save the PDF, but there are ways to have the DATA emailed back from the form itself. I'm too tired to dig up the link, but look for the Acrobat Javascript reference - it's a 400+ page document outlining all the functions you can code in. I've made a number of PDF forms at work, and it's sketchy, but you can do it.
Or bite the bullet and use Word...
