Saving a Form

Save forms in ABBYY FormDesigner as *.fdd Form Definition Files, and save form samples as *.dtf or page samples as *.ptf with the Save As command.

To save a form, use the standard Save or Save As… commands (File → Save or File → Save As…).

The Save As… command will save either a form or a form or page sample. To select a format, use the Save as type drop-down list.

Forms created in ABBYY FormDesigner are saved as *.fdd files (Form Definition Files).

Form samples are binary files with the extension *.dtf. Page samples are saved in *.ptf format, which is a modified version of *.fdd format.
