Another option you can try is that if the document has been Reader Extended and the user saves the document, force them to save it as a Static pdf. Then they should not be able to change the form.

Mr. Guerrette -
I saw your post about a script you have that locks "fields" within a form. Is it possible for you to send me your example? Second, can your script be modified so that it only "locks" certain fields and not others? I am trying to send out a pdf with some "prefilled" information that I don't want changed, but allow the end user to fill out the remaining fields. But my prefilled information would change case-by-case. Also, will this script run with adobe reader? Or just Acrobat? or Acrobat pro?
Your response would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

The script expects you to pass a subform and it will lock everything inside of that subform. In most cases people will pass the root node of the form and then everything gets locked down. If it makes sense to put all the fields you want to lock into a subform then this sample will be useful; otherwise, you may end up having to lock then one by one.
It looks like the attachment issue have been fixed on the forum so I will attach it here.

Hi Paul,
1st - If You can - send me the script. (wzawrockiATyahooDOTcom)
2nd request - I make a forms where end user has possibility to fill and print only - I want to give possibility for end users to save forms as non-fillable pdf (dont want to force them to print on paper and then scan).
I try to make this in file that You attach: Lock All Fields_Purchase Order.pdf but after I fill and lock - the document still can't be saved with changes.
I try my own way to print filled form on PDF Printer (PDFCreator 0.8.0) but result is: 1 blank page and on the second:
ERROR: undefined
OFFENDING COMMAND: get
STACK:
/quit
-dictionary-
-mark
Can You confirm is this script will work due to me needs? Or You have any other ideas how to do it to be easy to end user?
Regards,
Witek Z

The sample is attached in this thread ...there is no need to send it via email. Note that you must be in the Forum software to see the attachments, they will not be included in the email notifications.
If you fill the form online and try to save/print in Reader the data the user entered wil be dropped. If you want to have the data saved as well then you must Reader Extend the form.

Paul,
I don't know how or why I keep getting these messages and when
everyone asks questions, they appear to be to me then they write "Paul". Can
you delete my email address from their questions and your responses, it
would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bob

I am not the individual you need to ask. When I created my form in Designer
8, it allowed me the option for 500 users to be able to save the completed
form and also print it. Paul can confirm this if I am correct. He was the
one in the forms that gave me the information, otherwise I am under the
impression you have to purchase a separate license for it.
Sorry, that's all I can tell you,
Bob

Hi Paul
I am interested in the script you have to lock the form. I did download the purchase order form , the only thing i do notice is that when i lock the form the e-mail button gets locked as well so i can't e-mail it, can this be changed so the form can still be e-mailed but still be non fillable ? E-mail address is windsurfer@execulink.com
Regards

You can just add the code to unlock the email button field after the fact. In my example you an add this line of code after the lock code on the button:
Button.access = "";
