USING ACROBAT X STANDARD
Forms
Last updated 10/11/2011
500 people or less. The Acrobat customer can send an unlimited number of copies of the extended document to those
500 recipients and collect unlimited responses from the filled-in form.
Both limitations apply per entity/company, and multiple users in an entity cannot abuse this feature. Obtaining
additional licenses to use Acrobat does not increase the above restrictions. For example, five Acrobat Standard 9 users
in a company cannot send out the same extended document to receive and extract data collectively more than 500
times.
Acrobat Standard and Acrobat Pro include technology that can enable PDF documents with certain features by using
a digital credential. This credential is located within the Software (“Key”). You agree not to access, attempt to access,
control, disable, remove, distribute the Key for any purpose.
Adding JavaScript to forms
The JavaScript language lets you create interactive web pages. Adobe has enhanced JavaScript so that you can easily
integrate interactivity into PDF forms. The most common uses for JavaScript in Acrobat forms are formatting,
calculating, validating data, and assigning an action. In Windows, you can also configure Adobe PDF forms to connect
directly to databases using Open Database Connection (ODBC).
Note: If you’re creating dynamic forms, keep in mind that Reader doesn’t support some custom JavaScripts, so the form
may not function properly when viewed in Reader unless additional usage rights are added to the PDF.
Additional resources

Create form fields
In Acrobat, you create a form field by choosing one of the form tools. For each field type, you can set a variety of
options through the form field Properties dialog box.
Note: In Windows, you can use Designer ES2 to edit forms that were created in Acrobat. However, Acrobat can’t edit
form fields that have been opened and saved in Designer ES2.
