Shipping Calculations

I have a PDF form created using LifeCycleDesigner. This form is used for purchasing products and these products will be shipped. Is there any way to incorporate UPS shipping tools with this form, and if so, how? Has anyone else done this before?
Thank you,
Brian

Re: Shipping Calculations

You could use some of the WebServices that are available to prepopulate the form but the form would either have to be filled in using Acrobat or Reader Extended if used with Reader.

Do you have access to their WebService API's?

Re: Shipping Calculations

My only suggestion here is that you could communicate with a web service hosted by UPS (assuming they have one) from your form. This would let you send a request for shipping costs given some parameters (obtained from fields on your form) and then receive the estimated cost into another field on your form.

See the following article for more information on adding a web service data connection to your form:
