Hi All,
 
I have a report that produces an enrollment form PDF.
 
A client has asked if the output can be an editable pdf for the fields that require end users to fill out.
 
I know I can add input fields with Adobe but that is rather time consuming and defeats the purpose of the automated form.
 
Is there a way to have the crystal report identify and produce editable fields at run time (ie when the PDF is created).?

I am not aware of a way to replicate the adobe pdf functionality in Crystal Reports. It would be a nice feature set to add. The best I know would be to create a scheme where the report was created, export it an editable format such as Word, Excel or .Rtf. That does defeat some of the control over the document that a pdf provided.
If someone on the forum knows of a way to make what you want happen I would be really excited to learn about it.
 
Regards,
 
John W.
