Adobe Acrobat and LiveCycle: Creating Dynamic Web Forms, CMP982
LiveCycle, a forms editor package embedded in Adobe Acrobat Professional, is used extensively by government and business to create well-designed, user-friendly electronic forms linked to modern Web database technologies. You will learn how to: design interactive and dynamic PDF documents with fillable form fields as well as how to design form "tabbing order" essential to navigation through complex sub-forms and content areas; make forms for use online, offline, and via mobile devices; use LiveCycle Designer to validate and export form data, submit date to a server, design format data display and output, and prepare "data binding" to map form objects to elements in a data file.
