can we submit PDF form without Submit button?
Any javascript code/other alternate is available?
Currently I have PDF form without Submit button.
You will need a trigger to submit.
PDF/Acrobat has a series of possible triggers, such as Button, but you might look at links or bookmarks.

How to submit a form using submit button or input type submit outside of the form? In HTML It can be done easily using form ID but I didn't find the way to submit the form outside of the form in HTMX?
Can anybody help in this regard?
A couple of ways:
Dispatch a submit event to the form using javascript when the button is clicked.
Add the hx-post attribute on the external button and also add hx-include="#your-form-id". This will include all the inputs within the form in the request.
I have a fillable pdf on my website displaying inside an iframe. I created a Save button at the end of it through adobe acrobat professional, it is suppose to trigger Save As action ... However I cannot click on that button. Any suggestions?
I have a page with a viewPanel and a dialog. When an item in the viewPanel is clicked, the dialog opens, prompting the user to make changes to that item, and offering them the option to generate a report of the item in PDF format.
At first, I tried putting the PDF creation onto a button, as described here: http://www.eknori.de/2011-10-25/xpages-to-pdf-with-itext/ However, whenever the button is pressed, I get a "NotFoundError: DOM Exception 8" which seems to stem from the dojo JS. So currently I have an alternative whereby the button simply sets some sessionScope variables and opens a pdf.xsp XPage, where the variables are read back and the PDF is created.
The PDF gets created correctly, but it also means that the page that the user is on won't be refreshed to display their new change in the viewPanel. I've tried adding page redirects at the bottom of the XPage which creates the PDF, but with no luck.
So, how can I create a PDF and prompt a user to download it, but also refresh the page that they are currently on?
Are you isseuing an partial refresh on the button to hide your dialog and to execute the code for pdf generation? If so you I think that there is your problem. What you could do is to do a partial refresh on the onClose() method of the dialog to refresh the viewpanel. In the clientside onunload method you could open a so called xAgent which renders the pdf for you in a new window (window.open(pdf.xsp?docid=xxx). Take a look here: NotesIn9: 039 Creating PDF’s with XPages Part 2
Of cours the problem with this approach is that when you have a button / image in yoru viewpanel row that displays if the report has been created is not shown because the xagent runs after the / during the time the viewpanel row is being refreshed.
So I have a page with multiple input forms; is it possible to submit all these forms AT THE SAME TIME with one submit button? Also, each form has its own checkbox, and I want it so that if it is checked, it will NOT submit the data within that form to the PHP script. If the checkbox IS checked, I want it to submit the data within that form. Is this possible?
You could use AJAX or join all forms in one, which u will submit.
I am building a webapp that will display PDFs. The PDFs have fillable forms. Instead of making the user save the form, and then re-upload it to the webapp, the idea is to adapt the PDF such that it can POST itself (when the user clicks) from inside the browser to some HTTPS endpoint when the user is done.
Is this doable? If so, how? If not, any suggestions? Thanks.
Yes, there is an option (action) that allows pdfs to post themselves. The steps are as follows:
List item
Open Adobe Acrobat Pro
Select the button tool
Add submit form button
Add the url and how you want the form to be submitted. You're done.
The warning shown when the user clicks the "submit a form" button.
This can also be done in Adobe LiveCycle.
