Application Overview:
Adobe LiveCycle Designer

Adobe LiveCycle Designer is a point-and-click graphical form design tool that simplifies the creation of PDF forms. Form recipients can fill a form online, submit the data, and print it, or print and fill the form by hand by using Adobe Reader.

Using Adobe LiveCycle Designer, form authors can drag-and-drop images and other objects, such as list boxes, drop-down lists, and command buttons, onto their forms. They can design a form, define its logic, modify it to match paper counterparts or meet strict legislative requirements, and then preview the form before distributing it. With LiveCycle Forms you can render HTML forms as well as PDF forms.

Note: PDF Form Creation with Adobe LiveCycle Designer training is only available on the Windows platform.

Users: Creative, Web, Engineering, Finance, IT, Legal, Marketing and Admin Professionals as well as anyone who needs to create, edit, assemble, publish and distribute electronic documents, imagery and illustration.
