RE: Any way to insert a checkbox that will automatically be active in the PDF?

Karen,

I'm not exactly sure if this will work for your situation, but you can embed
pdfmark code into any eps file.  The pdfmark code is passed to the distiller
and will create your active checkboxes at generation time.  You would, of
course, have to use eps images for your checkboxes.  I've got more info
about this somewhere, if you are interested I will find it for you.  Years
ago I used this process to create active "Next Page" and "Prev Page" buttons
for Online PDF's we created from Frame.

Subject: Any way to insert a checkbox that will automatically be active in
the PDF? 

Hi all,
I'm creating a post-installation checklist, and I'm wondering:  
Is there a way to add a checkbox to the Frame file so that it will function
(i.e., click and the box fills in) without doing additional work in Acrobat?
I don't want to have to manually add the checkboxes every time I revise the
file.
thanks,
Ananda
