Finally found great PDF form to email handler

Post by protectourlands »

The PDF form results are sent via email in .fdf format, which populates the blank form on your drive. It is very secure and has excellent spam protection. Best part, it is only $15. Highly recommended.

Sorry it is not because if somebody wrote a script for send multiple messages then your inbox will be full.

You can use open office to do it or other open source pdf.

Are you talking about "mailto" on the submit button action? Any PDF program can do that. Mailto is insufficient for submitting PDF forms. If not, then what Open Office solution are you referring to?

Furthermore the Adobe solution requires an Adobe ID and the form user must use Adobe Reader to submit. I have no control over what the site visitor use to view PDF.

I'm talking about server side PHP processing that allows multiple target emails with spam protection. I've used this script on 2 websites so far with no issues at all. Before I found this solution, I was using a free service that relied on 3rd party server. This is not optimal, as it did not allow multiple target email recipients, and worse I also was not comfortable relying on someone else's server that could be shut down at any time out of my control.

If you have a good Open Office solution that is not a simple "mailto" , please do more than refer to it. Please share it.
