Convert dynamic pdf form to static pdf form

Is there a way to programatically convert dynamic pdf form to static pdf form?

My scenarios is our forms are dynamic pdf forms which have growing fields and dynamically added subforms. Once the user filled in the forms, the pdfs need to be converted to static pdf forms to be further processed by a 3rd party.

Thanks!

    Hi,

    it might be this:

    Save as optimized pdf, choose in the discard objects the second item.

    sorry I don't know how this is in english, I have it installed in dutch.

    Works for me!

    Hi I had the same issue but I found a simple solution. You just go to print - microprint to pdf - print - then save it as a different doc then you it is flattened. Hope it helps. It worked for me! Good luck!
