How do I convert text entered in a form into normal text?
I have created a CV form so that people I'm doing training with can easily
create a CV that looks good when it's printed out. The problem is that when it's e-mailed to an employer all the form fields come up grey so it doesn't look so good. Ideally I'd like to be able to get the form fields to appear the same colour as the rest of the document or for there to be a way to simply extract information from a form field into normal text. |

How do I convert text entered in a form into normal text?
Users could use Ctrl+A, Ctrl+Shift+F9 to unlink all the fields after
entering the form data. -- Suzanne S.
