Keep these considerations in mind when creating forms to
be opened and filled in Acrobat or Adobe Reader:
-
Consider which version of Acrobat and Adobe Reader people
are using when filling the form. Setting the target version of Adobe
Reader and Acrobat in Designer can help you create a form design
that is compatible. See
Selecting the Acrobat and Adobe Reader target version
.
-
Acrobat supports full interactive functionality, including
form filling, local saving, digital signatures, review and markup,
database and web service calls, and printing.
-
Adobe
Reader supports a smaller set of functionalities and provides users
with the ability to fill and print forms, and in some situations,
submit them. To extend the functionality of Adobe Reader to match that
of Acrobat, you must set usage rights for the form using extensions.

-
Acrobat and Adobe Reader support client-side data exchange
processing for interactive PDF forms.
-
Server-side
data processing, such as dynamic rendering and redisplay of forms
at run time, is available through Forms. For more information see
Designing forms for Forms
