i have an order form that is in InfoPath. the user fills out the form,
clicks a button and it e-mails to the people that need the info. But the
form is editable once it is received. Is there a way to make it uneditable
after it's received or send it as a pdf.

Thanks for your help.

Hi ,

Also there is one other option. Making the forms read only with the Down
Level tool
By using the Downlevel tool, form designers can convert their existing forms
into HTML so that users may view the data that the form contains using a
standard Web browser such as Internet Explorer.
Read the link below for understanding Down level too

Hope it does help you.
