ShosMeister Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Searched around and was not able to find anything on this that seemed to help. Client has a bunch of paper forms and wants them in FM. Short of creating a whole new set of databases (some of the forms have 70+ data elements), I'm thinking it would be easier to simply get the paper into PDF on the server then use a container field to point to them. Clicking on the container field will open the PDF. Is this possible? How? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcooney Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Yes, you can easily import a pdf into a container field, either as a reference or stored in the file. Double-click a ref and it'll open your Reader. Or export a container and open in Reader. But, containers aren't searchable, unless you add some fields for keywords, title, date, author, etc. Are you sure the client doesn't need a database?
