    Hi all,

    I downloaded Tomaxxi’s TomaxxiForms script files from his website some time ago via a link to it from an article on this site. It was great, as I design a lot of forms for work. I have recently started a new job and need the script to re-download onto my new iMac, but I cannot find the files, and Tomaxxi’s website (www.tomaxxi.com/downloads) is no longer working?

    Does anyone have the files they could send across to me?! I hope so! Please get in touch with me with any help you guys can possibly be!

    Thanks!!!

    Chris

    According to tomaxxi.com, his site should be back up by 1 September.

    Many (but not all) of his scripts are available on the https://creative.adobe.com/addons website. Unfortunately for the OP, TomaxxiForms was not one of them.

    That said, if a script that was once online is no longer there, it may be for good reason. It may

    * have catastrophic side-effects that aren’t easy to see;
    * be that the developer has decided to make it available commercially rather than freely available in the public domain;
    * have issues working in the latest versions of the software (particularly with older scripts) and need to be rewritten.
    * be obsolete and no longer required.

    And on that last point, InDesign has been able to do interactive forms since CS6 (May 2012), so I think the script no longer serves a purpose. Though I have never used Tomaxxi Forms so don’t know what it did compared to the functions in InDesign as it stands right now… or the OP is using a version of InDesign prior to CS6
