Adobe Acrobat Interactive Form

    Hello,
    I've made an interactive form for a wedding invite. I have a submit button, linking to an email address.
    Since this form will be attached, only as a normal PDF the link to the email wont work directly. It gives you instructions to save the document and send as an attachment.
    I understand the reason for why this happens but would like to make it easy for the user.
    I have 2 thought in my head and I know its not too complex.
    First is to have a url type link, click on it and it'll open the pdf in a web browser. When you press send, it will send.
    Second, have the pdf embedded on the email I'm sending. So when the user gets it, they hit send it would send from their email back.
    Anyway, any help is much appreciated.
    Thanks

    Build the email in HTML. Embed the form and have the action as a "mailto:" trigger to open a new email to send back within their client.

    Note: this might get spam blocked by some clients or spam suites, but any email soliciting replies like that likely will.

    Won't work if the recipient uses webmail and doesn't use a proper email client.
