[bcab] Re: PDF Files

Hi Karina,
 
Acrobat is not a free product, and it tends to be expensive.
 
Others on the list may have some suggestions for a cheaper
alternative to on-line forms completion.  I'm afraid what I
use is decidedly inaccessible.
 
George.

Hi George,
Thanks for this.  Where do I get Adobe Acrobat from, and not
just Adobe Reader, and wil Adobe Acrobat work with older
versions of Windows, preferrably Windows 98SE?
Many thanks.
Karina

        Hi Tink,
         
        If I'm not mistaken, you can't do this with Adobe
Reader.  You do require Adobe Acrobat.
         
        George.

        Karina,
         
            Yes, with PDF you can create forms that either
require completing and printing, or completing and
submitting. In the latter case, they work in a similar way
to web forms, transmitting the data back to a central
server. More information is available here:

        Regards,
        Tink.

        Hi, 
         
        I'm currently job hunting.  I've seen a job that I'm
interested in applying for and have downloaded the
application form and job description and person
specification, all of which are in PDF files.  It states
that you can complete the application form electronically,
but I'm a bit confused, because I thought that the purpose
of adobe PDF files are so that they cannot be ammended or
changed in any way.  Is this the case, or can you fill in
forms in the form of a PDF document?
         
        Many thanks in anticipation for any assistance that
you can give, I look forward to hearing from you as soon as
possible.
         
        Karina
