I'm trying to find a way to host some fillable PDF forms on our website that people can download, fill out, and then they have a SUBMIT button on it that would 1) upload the completed form to a folder on our web server as a PDF file, and then ideally 2) email a direct link to the file on the server. I know how to add the button, just not clear on the actions side for this scenario.
Adobe docs have some info here, https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/publishing-interactive-pdf-web-forms.html, but nothing specific to what I need.
Does anyone have any experience with this? And if it's even a realistic goal given the number of different PDF readers, browser-based viewers, etc and how it would be supported by all?
Thanks in advance
i've got another question about the PDFBox. Is it possible to creating new pdf's templates on our webpage and saving it?
Well something like - I want to create PDF document with specific fields as administrator on web page. I have fields which I want to fill by my restrictions and when I saving it i want to "LOCK" fields which i filled.
I hope it's clear.
It is possible in the moment of upload a content to a document library show the fields defined (of the document library)? At the moment, the only way that the user have to fill the fields is uploading the document first and then click edit to fill the fields.
Unfortunately there is no out-of-the box solution for this scenario. I agree that this would be useful, but currently you have to create a custom solution.
You will have to create a UI that displays the upload control (you can use the built-in Sense/Net plugin) and also the form fields. In the click event of a button, you have to first start and finish the upload, retrieve the new content id and than update the metadata fields - all this in JavaScript. This way users would not see the difference, for them this would be a single operation.
(in mid-term we plan to offer a built-in control that will make this possible, but we do not have a timeline for this feature)
I want to make a editable PDF document – but I want to take it a step further.
Is it possible to create some editable fields on the first page where the user can put in personal information (name, age etc.) and have the document fill itself in where "name" is required?
I need this for some employment contracts and it would be alot faster if the user only needs to fill the information in once, print the PDF and sign it. :)
In PDF a single form field may have multiple widgets. By definition all these widgets have the same content.
E.g. have a look at thie sample document aFieldTwice.pdf. You see two fields. As soon as you edit one of them and press enter, the same content occurs in the other one.
This might be what you look for.
I'm fairly new to ektron. I want the users to be able to attach a document to a Calendar Event (such as an Agenda PDF or Minutes PDF) and I want to display that link, in the Event Details page, so users can view and download it. I don't see any way to do that on the Edit Event form inside the workarea. That doesn't make sense that they wouldn't include such a simple option by default. Do I really need to customize the workarea or create a smartform so users can upload documents along with their events? Can someone recommend the easiest approach to do this?
You should be able to do this via the API. If you don't want to use the API, you could maybe use a content selector metadata item (this would require uploading the file first).
