I just tried to open one of their official forms and it took two..three minutes to open it. These things include calculations and possibly javascript. When it finished opening it, the appearance is very far from the correct one. ************* Yes, you're right, if you are just wanting to "fill" out the form and resave as PDF, kword would be overkill, but it is good to know we have something that can now edit a pdf easily.
It is an overkill, but the form is displayed incorrectly. The end result is not admisible.
Also, check out "cups-pdf", which allows you to create a virtual printer for direct saving/printing to a very good pdf file!
I see no cups-pdf in opensuse 10.2. Is it new in 10.3, perhaps? :-?
I have my ways to print to pdf, but that wasn't my exact question, anyway.
========== I believe this would be your easiest solution to your problem. Fill out the form in acroread, then print it to pdf using the cups-pdf virtual printer. Simple and straight forward. I don't remember the mirror for cups-pdf, but remember seeing someone here mention it in another thread. I'm using Zenwalk Linux right now, so am not keeping up with all of SuSE's mirrors & programs so much.
That's not the problem. I can always print to file and convert to pdf in many ways. That has never been the problem. You don't understand. I want a PDF viewer that can save the form data in one of the expected formats: FDF, PDF, HTML, XML. Nothing more, nothing less. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
