SHG,

I would like the opportunity to discuss your requirements for the work
you've described in your e-mail message below.

My company, OnLine Forms Communications (OLF), does all types of customized
work to prepare forms and other documents for OLF to gather error-free data
from data filers, securely transmit it over the Internet, and load it
directly into the data-user's database.

When the data to be delivered is entered on forms, we always start with the
data-user's forms and proceed in conjunction with the data user to get
everything correct, tested, and approved by the data user before the forms
'go live', thus keeping our clients in control at all times.

Also, OLF is a performance based contractor, meaning we don't have an
up-front charge, but we collect a small fee per form data submission. This
fee is generally about 25% of the total cost that the data user experiences,
or would experience, if they were to start with paper forms and end up with
error-free data in their applications database.

Thus, I would be interested in performing this work as describe in "(C)" in
the first paragraph of you message below.

This and all kinds of other information about OLF is contained on our Web
Site at www.OnLine-Forms.com. By the way, we will be loading completely new
Web Pages and Demo Forms on our Web Site soon, hopefully this weekend.

I look forward to receiving information from you about where I can reach you
to discuss your requirements in detail.

Doyle Dodge, CEO
OnLine Forms Communications

> Hello from a Novice! I have Acrobat Professional v6 for the PC and v5 for
the Mac. I've created some PDF forms and am not familiar with much more than
Acrobat's basic capabilities. Can anyone please: (A) inform me if it is
possible to create a PDF file to do the following and if so, (B) is there a
resource or plug-in that could assist me to accomplish this task should I
attempt to take it as far as I can, and/or (C) provide me with your bid to
take on this project:
>
> I want to create a PDF document to email my customers who only have
"Acrobat Reader" for the PC or Mac. I want the PDF document to have a
(signature?) field which, upon clicking, will: (1) prompt the customer to
enter a password with verification only that any password of their choosing
must be entered and, (2) suggest that they write the password down on a
separate piece of paper.
>
> Thereupon saving the password (which, if possible, I would prefer be saved
within the PDF file itself - not in a separate file), the PDF file must
automatically (via script?) lock the signature field itself plus 3 other
fields and (also preferably automatically) open the customer's email client
if it isn't already open, and attach itself to a new email message
(pre-addressed from an editable mailto: email address within a script
embedded within the PDF file?) that the PDF file will also paste canned text
within the body of the email message (informing the customer that the email
must be transmitted back to me from their same email address that I already
have on file) and, either: (A) automatically enters the aforementioned
password into the body of the email message or, (B) requests the customer to
re-enter the that password within the body of the email message (in which
case password verification is preferable, but unnecessary). After my receipt
of this email message containing the PDF attachment and upon my attempt to
open the PDF file it should prompt me to enter the correct password or fail
to open/print, etc.
