Maybe it is possible to use something like CutePDF or some other pdf "printer" out there. On the form submit, maybe have the form print so to speak using the pdf writer as the printer and then they should or would be prompted to save to a location. As a save to location could also be set as default in code. I don't know if that will work, but could be a possibility.

Draw back to this is that the clients would have to have the pdf printers installed on their pc, and I don't know if they are able to be pushed to everyone or if you would have to touch each machine.

If export to PDF is not supported in browser enabled forms, then you will need another method. There are lots of products on the market that can produce a PDF based on an HTML page or can generate one on the fly. Perhaps one of these could be incorporated into an ASPX page that generates a view of the form from the saved XML file.

There might be other possibilities, but this is what comes to mind.

Hi,

I have created an infopath web form and it works fine. But one function is missing...After the user press the submit button, he or she should have the possibility to get the form as a pdf file. The problem is that it is a web form, I searched for some tutorials, but I only find something to implement this function in a normal infopath form...

I hope you can help me!

Thanks a lot!!!
