Fill and Save PDF Form within Safari

Question

Fill and Save PDF Form within Safari

I know I can download, fill out a PDF Form and save.

But we need to fill out PDF Forms online and have those forms saved on our server (within our Student Information Server).

I cannot see any possible way of doing this, and it could be a reason our school district switches to PCs.

I have downloaded, and installed Adobe Reader 8.0, which doesn't allow Saving PDF.

The Schubert|it 2.2.3 plugin for PPC machines won't allow Saving either.

Is there any hope.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.4.8)

The Schubertt plug-in ought to allow "save", but you need to click the "File" menu within the plug-in screen, rather than Safari's file menu. Have you tried this? If so, is the option "greyed-out?

You need to act as if you were going to Print the page. When the print dialog opens click the box that says save as PDF.

You are misunderstanding.

I don't want to save the PDF on my computer. I want it saved on the server within our Student Information System.

It doesn't work with the schubert plugin (the plugin even says it won't).

I want to be able to modify a PDF that is on a server and save it on the server all within a web page.

It can be done on Windows. It can't be done on OS X (up to 10.4.9)
