PDF Forms Using Acrobat® and LiveCycle® Designer Bible

Chapter 32. Examining Some Dynamic Forms

IN THIS CHAPTER

• Using the tutorials

• Using the sample forms

• Finding sample forms on the Internet

Adobe has made an effort to assist you as much as possible in learning to use Designer to create forms both static and dynamic. The Designer Help document is a reference guide as well as an instructive tutorial.

You also have at your disposal some sample forms that came with your Acrobat installation. Several forms are designed as examples of static and dynamic forms. You can browse the form contents and see how they were constructed. The scripts are available in the Script Editor where you can copy and paste scripts to achieve similar results on your own forms or modify the existing forms to suit your own company's needs.

In this chapter we begin by looking at the tutorials in the LiveCycle Designer Help document and then move on to examine the forms samples.
