Exporting to a PDF Form document
I'm trying to create an interactive catalog from a report.
The idea is to create a PDF form with checkboxes next to items a
customer could select. This PDF catalog could be then distributed.
Basically, each item in a table would have a checkbox and grouping would
respect mutual exclusivity.
Is this possible with RB- to at least create the form fields/checkboxes?
Or does this have to be done after the report is exported to a PDF?
TIA,
John

Form based PDF or "FDF" is currently not supported by the built-in PDF
device. This is something we will consider adding for a later release
of the product. Currently you would need to export the report and use a
separate product such as Acrobat to add form fields.

It would be an excellent feature!
Thanks for the reply.
