Steal if you want to.

I just need to see if this works for you. I'm trying to clean up my wedding planner from .doc to .pdf.

Fil out parts of it, then email to me at [email protected] when you get a chance. Try printing a page of it too if can....

FEEDBACK PLEASE.

thanks all!

Jerimiah, I downloaded the form. On the Mac side with the built in tool (Preview) I couldn't fill in any fields. With Windows, I could fill in all fields and check boxes but got a warning that I could not save changes to my computer. I think it has something to do with me having the Free Acrobat reader and not an upsell version, most people have the free version. It does tell me I can print the form with the fields filled in if I would like.

The only way around not being able to save it so you the couple can email it back to you probably is to have them install a PDF printer which I'd imagine is more involved than most brides want to get. ;)

For online stuff, I'd just use an online planner like DJ Event Planner and for those who want to snail mail it in, just have them use the PDF.

Ahhh crap. You are right.

I can't believe Adobe won't let you save the form....hmmm.....I wonder if there is a check box I'm missin' on the "rules of the document" or something....


I think I can have this form uploaded to my own website somehow and just let people fill it in there and click submit.....dang....why didn't I just go to school learn this!? Its kinda fun.
 
Maybe a line or two for what kind of music they want for the cocktail hour and during dinner.

What are their parents names for when you do the parent dances or intro them in the beginning?

Who is the photographer, and how long will they be staying.... thereby determining how you will order the special events and dances - and if you will have to do some front-loading of them so the photographer can "get them all." Will the photographer be wanting to steal them out of the reception at any point for any special shots, ie "Sunset Shot," thereby throwing a wrench into your (what you thought was going to be) perfect flow?:)

I guess not everyone wants to get as anal as I do!

You've seen my planner on the forum here. IM me or email @ [email protected] if you would like a copy in Word you can edit or trash.
 
I love the concept, but like Dan I was unable to save or email a copy...
 
A few have emailed. Some were able to save and send just fine and some weren't. I hope this was working on computers with just the free adobe reader on board.

Either way, I think I need to give clients both .pdf and .doc planners just to be safe.

Meanwhile try to find a way just to slap this on my server....
 
I just saved it as a PDF with no problem
 
No I'm using the free version

EDIT: I can't save any info to the document....I'm going to try it with Cute PDF

I don't have Adobe pro. I can email the blank form but I can't email the filled out form. I can print the filled out form. If you want clients to email a filled out form I wouldn't use Adobe.

I'm sure it works great Dennis, but the average bride around here probably doesn't have or want Foxit Reader. Can they edit and save in Foxit?

BTW, there wasn't anything added or suggested in the attachment

thanks brother!

this fixing, reworking, and tweeking is the reason I use an on line event planner for $100 a year. Best money I ever spent.

I scrolled to the bottom and there isn't anything new brother.


I'm gonna try and get that foxitfree. Hopefully my dumb brides won't have a problem installing it....Mac too?

Everyone gave good advice but I think Big Dan and Scott Hanna are steering you in the best direction. You don't want to add hurdles to jump.
 
I send out my documents as word documents whats the issue with not going that route and allowing difficulties the PDF route can cause?
