HTTP submit button

    HTTP submit button properties in the Field tab

    When you select an HTTP submit button, the Field tab in the Object palette displays several options for formatting HTTP submit buttons.

    Type

    Sets the type of object. Objects are the building blocks of every form.

    Caption

    Sets a caption for the object.

    Note: Caption is a dynamic property. Dynamic properties are identified by active labels that have a green underline that you can click to dynamically bind the property to a data source. To turn active labels on and off, use the Show Dynamic Properties command in the Object palette menu. See Dynamically populate a caption.

    Appearance

    Sets the border style:

    No Border
    Removes the line around the button.

    Solid Border
    Creates a thick line around the button.

    Raised Border
    Creates a shadow around the button so that the button looks three-dimensional.

    Custom
    Opens the Custom Appearance dialog box. Select this option if you want to define a custom look for the button.

    Highlighting

    Sets the button highlight when the button is clicked:

    None
    Removes the button highlight.

    Inverted
    Inverts the button highlight when the button is clicked.

    Push
    Creates a shadow around the button so that the button looks like it is recessed.

    Outline
    Creates a line around the button when the button is clicked.

    Rollover Caption

    Sets a rollover caption when the button highlight is set to Push. This caption appears when the mouse pointer moves over the button.

    Down Caption

    Sets a down caption when the button highlight is set to Push. This caption appears when the button is clicked.

    URL

    The URL that the form data will be posted to.

    Sign Submission
    Applies a data signature to the submitted data. When a form filler clicks the button, a digital signature is created to cover the submitted data and attachments. Data signatures secure the signed data and guarantee the data integrity during transmission. Data signatures can apply to the form data or to the entire submission, including attachments. Click the Settings buton to define optional security properties for the data signature, such as the signature handler, signing certificates, and certificate issuers.

    Encrypt Submission
    Encrypts form content. When a form filler clicks the button, the form content is encrypted before submission to secure the form content during transmission. You apply encryption to the form data or to the entire submission, including attachments. Click the Settings buton to define optional encryption properties such as encryption algorithm, encryption certificate, certificate issuers, and key usage.

    Presence

    Controls whether an object is displayed in a PDF form when users view the form in Acrobat or Adobe Reader, or when users print the form:

    Visible
    The object is visible on-screen, visible in the printed form, and occupies space in the form layout. Visible is the default presence setting for all objects.

    Visible (Screen Only)
    The object is visible on-screen, not visible in the printed form when printed from within Acrobat or Adobe Reader, and occupies space in the form layout.

    Visible (Print Only)
    The object is not visible on-screen, visible in the printed form (when printed from within Acrobat, Adobe Reader, or directly from the server), and occupies space in the form layout.

    Invisible
    The object is not visible on-screen, not visible in the printed form, and occupies space in the form layout.

    Hidden (Exclude from Layout)
    The object is not visible on-screen, not visible in the printed form, and does not occupy any space in the form layout.

    One-sided Printing Only
    The object is only printed when using single-sided printing.

    Two-sided Printing Only
    The object is printed when using double-sided printing. This option is useful when you want to place the page number in a different corner of the page when using double-sided printing than when using single-sided printing.

    Locale

    Renders the data according to the specified locale for language and country or region. You can select a specific language and country from the list, or you can specify one of these options:

    Default Locale
    Uses the Default Locale specified in the Defaults tab of the Form Properties dialog box.

    Viewer’s System Locale
    Uses the system locale of the user’s computer.
    Note: Locales in the Locale list are organized first by language and then by country or region.
