I have worked extensively with PDF forms and am a little new to InfoPath. I have developed a PDF-based system whereby forms that are attached to another PDF form can be filled in, signed and saved back as attachments to the &quot;envelope&quot;. The envelope has a list of attached form names which is dynamically populated and checked as completed when each form is saved back to it. The envelope is also encrypted for use only by selected individuals (certificate based). I am trying to asses to what extent this is possible with InfoPath, and if there is perhaps an alternative (in conjunction with Sharepoint).<br /></p><p>I can create an InfoPath form as an attachment in another form, but is it possible to create a script that will close the form and save these changes back to the document is was opened from? The same event should then also check the form as completed in a list on the envelope (as a checkbox or something suitable). If this is possible, would it remain possible in browser based forms?<br /></p><p>Secondly what options are there for encrypting the envelope for specific individuals (online and offline)?</p><p>Any input is appreciated.</p>
