Attaching Files to a Form Document
I created a form and am now being asked how to attach other files to this
document. In otherwords, they fill out the form and then want to attach the files that hold the pictures which are related to the information they just entered. Is there anyway to allow this in a locked form!? |

Attaching Files to a Form Document
Hi Leah,
To do this: .. insert one or more section breaks into the document, so that the formfields are in their own section(s) and not in the sections where you want to be able to insert the pictures .. use Tools|Protect Document|Forms|Sections to protect only the section(s) with the formfields.

Attaching Files to a Form Document
If I put a section break at the end of the main form table, where they would
be doing all of their typing, when it rolls to another page will that interfer with the section break or will it still allow them to attach the picture to the end of the document. They don't want to attach the pictures into the body of the document...they want to be able to attach it as like the next page...like and appendix. And I don't want the photos to interfer with the information that they type into the form since it is the most relevent. I and they would really like each picture to show up as its own page. (ie: Insert/File as opposed to Insert/Picture/From File) "macropod" wrote: Hi Leah, To do this: .. insert one or more section breaks into the document, so that the formfields are in their own section(s) and not in the sections where you want to be able to insert the pictures .. use Tools|Protect Document|Forms|Sections to protect only the section(s) with the formfields.

Attaching Files to a Form Document
Hi Leah,
If you put a section break at the end of the main form table, they would fill in the form, then tab/scroll to the next section where they could type in extra text or insert pictures. If they want, they can even insert more section breaks and/or page breaks into the unprotected section. If you only give them an unprotected section at the end of the document, nothing they do there can affect the layout of the section of the document that includes the form.
