Application Overview:
Adobe Acrobat Professional
Adobe Acrobat Professional software allows you to create an Adobe PDF form that is an electronic-based form, resembling a traditional paper form, that can collect data from a user and thensend that data via email or the Web. It's easy to create, fill in, and submit electronic PDF forms. You can design and create an entirely new form, or you can quickly convert your existing paper and electronic forms to PDF and then add PDF form fields. Creating an Adobe PDF form from an existing form lets you maintain your organization's corporate identity and branding while saving you the effort of re-creating the form. If all the proper software and hardware components are in place, form data can be submitted over the Web and collected in a database, just as if you were using HTML forms.
Note: If you will be using Acrobat Standard 8 or previous versions such as Acrobat 7 Professional or Standard and Acrobat 6 Professional or Standard instead of Acrobat Professional 8, please contact DPA to obtain more information to insure DPA Adobe Acrobat training will fulfill your goals.
Users: Creative, Engineering, Finance, IT, Legal, Marketing and Admin Professionals as well as anyone who needs create electronic versions of their forms for users to fill in print or submit.
