Enable user saving pdf form.

[Theo]

Hello,

When creating a PDF with form fields, currently, it can't be saved with the data filled in. After doing some research, it appears that if you were creating the pdf using Adobe Acrobat, there's an option to enable adobe reader users to save a filled in pdf form. Can this be set when creating a PDF using Syncfusion Essential PDF library?

The option in adobe acrobat:

Hi Theo,

Thank you for using Syncfusion Products.

We can create the PDF form with data filled in and save it using Syncfusion Essential PDF library. Please have a look at the sample below to do this.

I want the user who receives the pdf and fills it in using Adobe Reader to be able to save a filled in copy themselves.

Hi Theo,

Currently we do not have the permission to save the filled in PDF forms in our library. The standards for enabling this permission has still not been released.

Let us know if you have any questions.

Hi Chris,

Thank you for using Syncfusion products.

Using Essential PDF, document with form fields can be filled and saved programmatically. But we cannot provide permission for reader to save a filled PDF form document. 'Adobe Reader extended functionalities' is the usage rights/ signature given by adobe only for adobe products (acrobat/reader). These standards has not been published for other creators.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Regards,
George
