Forms don't submit data

Acrobat 8 Professional on Mac OS X 10.4.11.

A form I created in Acrobat does not transmit the data in the form fields when e-mailed vie the submit button. The artwork - created in Illustrator - arrives, but the fields are empty.

This form is intended to be integrated into a web page via inline frame. It works properly but when I click on the submit button and the form opens in Mail, the fields are empty.

It prints properly, from Acrobat as well as from Safari when integrated into a web page.

Forms don't submit data

Did you Extend Features in Adobe Reader from the Advanced menu in Acrobat before saving the file?

Not initially. But I did after I read your reply. It didn't make a difference, though, and I would have been if it did since I have only Acrobat Professional installed and not the reader. So it's actually Acrobat what's running in the browser window.

The data doesn't even show when I open the document in Acrobat and select ''Attach to E-mail'' from the File menu. It's only visible when I open and fill out the form in Acrobat or in the browser.

Thanks for your reply.
