About Glenn Fraller Expertise Even though I am donating my time to AllEperts.com and I am an Expert, this does NOT mean I know ALL the answers to ALL questions! It seems to me today, people seem to want too much from certain people. I am here because I want to help lead people in a direction I would go. My expertise is limited to Adobe Acrobat 5 (PC) and Acrobat 7 Professional (MAC). If you have version 8 (PC) or (MAC) I, now I am speaking for me only, I would read the help file(s) and research on the Internet every where until I found and understood the solution to my challenge.
Experience Every business day I use Enfocus Pitstop, a plug-in for Adobe Acrobat 5 (PC) and Professional 7 (MAC). Without it, there isn't that much that can be done without the hassel of opening the PDF within Adobe Illustrator. Then there are font issues! Education/Credentials Degreed in Industrial Education and Technology, School of Graphic Communications and work in the prepress field everyday as a toubleshooter.

Question Glenn:
I completed a sample PDF form,as a potential customer, and entered the usual information. Name, address, quantities, etc.
I then sent it to myself (using a "Submit" button) as the protential supplier.
When I received the completed form from the "customer", I, as a supplier, was able to modify all the information that was entered by the customer.
The customer information should be static, once it is sent.
Is there a setting somewhere, that would prohibit modification, once the customer submits the form.
Answer Hello Nicholas,
You want to do a process that sounds simple. However, in today's insecure environment, security is never simple. I receive a number of questions daily about the same process in which you seek. I found a marvelously informative place on the Web for you. I do not have the time to write a PDF JavaScript for you, so I will forward you to this place where you may derive specific information for yourself, since what you seek is custom to your form.
