Q. Can I save Adobe PDF forms in Adobe Reader after I have filled out a PDF form?
A. Yes, provided your form has had the "local save" capability turned on with Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions. Team members both inside and outside an organization have access to and can interact with forms. You can easily open, fill out and submit PDF forms, even from handheld devices and over wireless connections. However, if the "local save" capability has not been activated in your PDF form, you will not be able to save the form data with Adobe Reader.
Q. (@Adobe): Did you really feel that was a sufficient and suitable answer to this question. Just make it goddamn free and built-in already!

With a copy of Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard, you have the ability to enable a PDF form to be filled in, saved and returned by an Adobe Reader user, plus a whole lot more. (You do not need LiveCycle Reader Extensions.) With Acrobat Standard you can also create a PDF form, distribute the form in a number of ways, track the status of the form, allow Acrobat to automatically collect and aggregate the data for you, and analyze the data. See the Forms info here for more info.
