How to convert an interactive form into a static PDF document?

[#1]

Hi,

I would like to convert a dynamic interactive form into a static PDF document in the background. In the foreground you would save the interactive form locally, open it and "print" the file into a PDF converter printer (e.g. PDF-XChange or Adobe distiller). But how can you do it in the background?

Thanks and regards, Michael

Hi,

thanks for your reply. Initially the document should be open so that the user can input data into the form. But after the creater has finished his data input I would like to convert it to a static PDF so that the document can not be changed anymore. By converting it to a static document the document approvers will then also get the possibility to add comments.

something you can consider is adding a digital signature. when the user clicks (signs) it, you can have it lock down all the fields for input.
