create fillable form using Addin in Word?

[kloncarek]

Hi,

is there any way to create a fillable form from a word file? Maybe using the content controls from the developer tab within word to mark fields?

I know Word cannot do it by itself.
I know I could use PDF Editor Plus to add fields after the PDF is created. I just would like to avoid this additional step especially as my word file could change fairly often.

So what I'm searching for: A way to create a fillable form within word (which works that way in word) and then a simple conversion to fillable PDF form.

Any ideas?

Hello kloncarek,

You can drag and drop your .docx file over the Editor and it would convert it on the fly to a PDF.
Then you have the "Identify Forms"

So that you can quickly end up with a PDF file with interactive form fields.

I do not think there is a way to convert the Word fields to PDF fields in a single step.

Kind regards,
Stefan
