Re: PDF Documents

Rob,

You're incorrect.  The free PDF reader can be used to fill in and
print/submit PDF forms.  That doesn't count as editing.

Len,

The problem is editing PDF documents.  Adobe gives away a free PDF reader.
 Getting to edit it costs $.  Heck, I can't even do that.  So all your
customers would need a PDF editor.  A better choice might be to create
Word documents.  The odds of users being able to edit that increases
dramatically.  I wouldn't go with the latest version of Word.  A lot of
installations are still running XP so some version of Word running on that
might be better.  The problem is that everybody and their brother as a PDF
generator from the i.  A nice fill in Word document isn't quite so common.

Another option is just send them a link to a website.  And have them enter
the data there.

I would need to have this on my end before I send the documents.  Many

Are you talking on your end before you send it or after you
have sent it to your customer.

Greetings,

We have a couple of applications that generate spooled

files on a 520

box
w/v6r1 and a 3rd party solution that will email/fax the

documents to

our customers in PDF format.  Our customers want to be

able to edit

the PDF and send it back to us without having to print

the document

out.  Can anyone offer any suggestions and/or point me

towards the

right direction as how I may do this using our existing process.

Thank you
