I need to save the fillable pdf after the user is done filling it. I basically need a JavaScript function for it. I googled it but didn't found any solution. 

<embed id="pdf" src="panel.pdf#navpanes=0&scrollbars=0" type="application/pdf"/>

Any suggestions is most welcomed.

  • Does this answer your question? [How can I create download link in HTML?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2793751/how-can-i-create-download-link-in-html) – Mosh Feu Mar 01 '20 at 16:38
  • No. It will download only a pdf from the source but I want to save the pdf once the user is done editing it. – Archit Singh Mar 02 '20 at 08:50
  • You're right. How you generate this PDF? – Mosh Feu Mar 02 '20 at 15:47
  • This is a simple pdf which I have embedded it in html where user can edit it as well. – Archit Singh Mar 02 '20 at 15:59
  • Interesting. Well actually, I'm not familiar with that area but from a short test I made (created the PDF using https://www.jotform.com/) you can submit the form only with acrobat reader and hit on the "download" button just download the original pdf. So I'm not sure it's possible. – Mosh Feu Mar 02 '20 at 16:10
  • Submit the form with acrobat reader? Will the edited pdf will be saved or the original one. – Archit Singh Mar 02 '20 at 17:44
  • You can submit the **data** using acorbat reader, not the whole PDF. From a quick search (again, I'm not familiar with that area) I couldn't find a native way - without libraries, to do this. If you want to invest some time, you can a form in html and then put its values in the PDF. Like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHTrsUtmQTo – Mosh Feu Mar 02 '20 at 19:17
