Form Submission: "Save PDF ..." creates error

[Peter2]

Win 7 Prof, PDF XChange Viewer Pro 2.5/210 German
------------------------------------------
Hi

I downloaded a PDF-form from here:
http://cms.hypercms.net/repository/medi ... 070858.pdf

There is a lot of forms (some of them are out of order, this is maybe a PDF problem ...), and at the top of the page is a button "Save PDF". Pressing this button results in the attached error. The German string means "An error occurs during submission of form."

Two questions / remarks:

a) Is this a problem of the PDF or a problem of the software?
b) The message is a mixture of English and German.

Hello Peter,

The Viewer can't automatically submit forms online - but have you tried the PDF-X Editor:

Hi Stefan

....The Viewer can't automatically submit forms online...

OK, that's clear now. But I thought that "Save PDF" is a "local thing"?

... but have you tried the PDF-X Editor:...

No, not at the moment. I just saw the information and will start later.

Hi Peter,

The button could contain any text, and do an online submission
Have you tried using the "File -> Save" option in the Viewer?

In any case - do let us know how it goes with the Editor once you've had the chance to test!

Yes, of course. But it will take some time (Easter holidays and a lot of stress).

Report from One-minute-quick-test:
I took the file (both online and offline) and pressed the button.
Nothing happened: No error message / no local saving / no online submission (maybe in background, but I could see nothing)

Thanks for testing Peter,

I will see if I can get any more info for your sample file and will post it back here.

Hi Peter,

The problem you reported in this topic is confirmed and I've made this ticket:
#1797: AcroForm: unsupported submission method
So that we can fix it. We will post back here when further info is available.

Best,
Stefan
