  • Interactive PDF save in Webpage

    Posted by Michael Garcia on April 30, 2011 at 1:37 am

    I created an interactive PDF form to post in my website, and thanks to the archives here I found a nice way to achieve that. I created an iframe and placed the PDF in the frame. it works great, however I was hoping to be able to have my clients fill out the information in the document online and save it there, so that the PDF is actually modified and saved on the website as opposed to locally on their computer. I have read and searched everywhere but I cannot seem to see if this is even possible. It is a very simple template, a spreadsheet with dates and times, almost like an appointment book that I have created but I need the interactivity to be saved for each user, on the pdf, on my site.

    My knowledge level in writing HTML is beginner at best, I am using an old G5 Mac OSX 10.5.8, Adobe Acrobat 9.4.1 and iWeb 3.0.3.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for your time,

    Michael garcia

    I don’t think you can.

    What you want to do can be done in a dynamic web page. For that you need to do some programming and understand how to load and change content from an external file or a database.

    I hope this helps
