The Adobe Experience Manager Forms software is a third-party product that is purchased separately from your Windchill solution and is deployed to an application server. It is used to pre-populate Windchill data into task form templates that are created in Adobe Designer software in a XDP file format. The Experience Manager Forms software also converts the XDP template into PDF format to be rendered in the web browser.

The task form templates are managed via the Windchill Templates user interface and contains various form fields, like labels, text fields, and radio buttons. These form fields are place holders to display the attributes of task like variables and process names to the task participant when a task for an activity is executed through a Windchill workflow process. The Workflow Template Administration utility then acquires the information completed by the task participant and updates the Windchill system. Once created, the task forms are rendered in a PDF file format and printed from Windchill.
