Topic: Submit Web Data

As recently as 2015 I could create a fillable PDF Form in PagePlus and use a Serif Web Resources as an email gateway service to get data from submitted PDF forms. Is there still a way to do this? I do not have and do not want to set up a web server.

Re: Submit Web Data

Serif Web Resources was closed several years ago. When that happened, several members of the Serif forum switched to Forms to Go (pretty sure that was/is the name). Can't advise any further.

There are several apps you can buy that will read all PDF forms, the best is AABBY FineReader but it is very expensive. If you google for a PDF reader there are some free ones, some free online, some for only a modest charge. Any of them would be able to help you  extract information from a filled in PDF.

Any PDF reader will enable you to extract information from a PDF file, but creating fillable PDF forms is a very different kettle of fish!
