Need Help With Tasty Tidbits Newsletter

[HeatherZ]

Hello,

I subscribed to Joy's Tasty Tidbits newsletter. I love how the newletter looks in the printable PDF form. I cannot figure out how to get my consultant info to save and then email this to my customers. I emailed Joy but have not heard back yet. I would really like to get my newsletter out soon.

If you are only using Adobe PDF reader (the free one) then you cannot save any information in PDF form. This is a major drawback and it is how Adobe get people to buy Acrobat Professional (which is really expensive).

I use Tasty Tidbits and I just change it to put my information (or whatever other changes I make) from the email she sends. You just forward it and then you can edit it before sending it.

Hope that makes sense...

We also do this - some people are leary of opening attachments so I would rather provide them the information in the body of the e-mail.

Heather,
I just replied to your email but I will repost the answer here too -- hopefully you don't think I was ignoring you, but I rarely sit down to answer my emails until after 6 or 7 pm at night (West coast time).

You cannot really view a PDF document inside the body of an email, but what you can do is clip the entire document as an image and paste that image (like a photo) into your email. To do this in Adobe Reader, select the tool that looks like a little camera ("snapshot tool") and click and drag all around the whole page. It should be copied to your clipboard and then go into your email and paste it in... It will appear as one whole image and the quality won't be as good as the original. Remember that you cannot make any changes to the PDF document, however, unless you have Publisher and can open the original source document to edit.

Actually, unless I'm mistaken, my subscribers should be able to add their personal info to the text field box I created, and be able to save that and then forward it as an attachment.

Joy,

Just from my experience with the Going, Going Gone flyer, it let me enter our personal info, but it wouldn't save it or even keep the info in there when attaching the PDF in an e-mail. It wasn't a big deal for me, but just so you are aware.

Okay, let me figure out if I can fix it in Adobe so you can save the flyers.... back to the drawing board!

What she said Joy...I too tried to add personel info and it would not let me save it it said i needed certain versions which of course I dont have. But I still sent it out. ) (FALL FLASH)

yeah, darn those Adobe people! they want us to buy their expensive software.....

All you can do is fill in your information and then print it out. After that I guess you could scan it in as an image and your name and stuff would be there but what a pain.....sorry ladies!
