All I have is Acrobat 6 so I really don't know if this is an enhancement

If I make a PDF file from a form with drop-down's, text fields, Radio
buttons, and Check boxes it gets them all... AND they work just as if it
were a web page. (Links work too)

Now where the problem comes is you can not save the filled in form (using
just the reader)... But you can E-Mail it or Print it (If the permissions
are set right on the master PDF.)

I got it for one site (real-estate listings) so that when someone downloaded
the file it was exactly the way (format wise) it was laid out. That company
might not know it but it was in their bill for the software..... (under
other tools needed?)

| Don,
| Is that just Acrobat 6? I've been fiddling with my copy of CS and
noticed

I'm

| capability for 6.
|
| TIA
