1. Re: Is it possible to email the forms to an address field inside the form?
Gilad D (try67) Jul 31, 2013 12:34 PM (in response to justin345634)Sure it's possible, but you'll need to use a script. What's the name of the
field that contains the email address you want to use?
Also, unless your users are using Reader XI there's a legal issue since you
can't submit the file from more than 500 users according to the EULA.

2. Re: Is it possible to email the forms to an address field inside the form?
justin345634 Aug 1, 2013 12:12 PM (in response to Gilad D (try67))Thank you for your answer... I just want to be sure I understand, and also provide some more info. Technically there will be 27 people in my work group that the form could be mailed to and only a few hundred that would be submittng the form. Nationally there would be different work groups that would use different forms for the same purpose.
Also I want to use formcentral to create an embded form on a webpage. We currently use an editable PDF, but there is all kinds of end user issues due to Adobe Reader not being a standard program. The end user has some weird PDF reader that can't retain the data correctly. We are trying to fix this issue within an online form that will send a completed PDF via email to the email address specified by the end user via a email entry box.
Is this still possible? If so caould you give me some exampe code for the scripting?
Thanks again for all of your help,
Justin

on above link, you mentioned that you can help if it is a pdf form, I have a pdf form that want to send through approval process but who it goes to depends on the originator....
have tried the button with doc.mailDoc(), works great as long a the email address is hard coded. I still want to use a button but somehow it changes based on user input, or just based on the user.

Gilad D (try67) Nov 4, 2014 12:34 PM (in response to frustrared by install)In what way should it depend on the user's input, exactly?

Gilad D (try67) Nov 5, 2014 1:33 AM (in response to frustrared by install)How's the script supposed to know if it's rejected or not?
And are the email addresses included in the values of the drop-downs?
At any rate, you would need a custom-made script with the logic behind
deciding to whom the file should be sent.

NKOWA555 Nov 5, 2014 4:21 AM (in response to justin345634)Check out the following site:
http://www.pdfemail.net/examples/
By using a server-side script such as ASP.net or PHP, end-users can bypass client-side email software.
The ASP.net scripts are able to parse the submission values and inject them into the TO, CC, BCC, Subject, and message Body.
