I need help . I got a basic "Legal Form" off the computer in a PDF format that I need to file with the county .

I saved a copy to my documents section and then tried to fill it out . It will not let me add the information in the blanks ???? Its a standard Form that the county needs and they want it typed. I only have a computer and thought I would edit it and hit print .

How do I do it ???

You could do it the old fashioned way.
Print out the blank form and fill it out.

PDF's are very restrictive. Many of them you can read only. I've heard of shareware that lets you create PDF like files but I've never had the need for it.

Al,

Your kind of screwed. PDF files like Doc said are typically read only. I can buy an expensive PDF creator/editor but even then a lot of times they are protected.

If the county has that requirment you might ask them if they have the form in word doc format or something more user friendly. I bet they have an answer.

Yea they were real helpful:censored: . The County gal showed me a layout detail of what the form should look like . They don't even have them .
She told me to get a lawyer to do it at $271 bucks !!!
Its one page , for cryin out loud !!! It's a "fill in the blanks and file and your done type form " . I sure as hell have better places to spend $271 bucks !!
I'll go find a type writer .........

My parents bought some forms for their rental place that were fillable PDF's but you couldn't save them with the info in them. They had to type the info in each time they wanted to rent to someone. I have the writeable version of the Adobe PDF at work and was able to type it in and save it. Al I'm gonna send you a PM and maybe I can help you.

Here it is, I just added some text boxes using Adobe Professional 8. I also added at the boxes below so you can check them, but the checkmarks are kinda small. Let me know if this works

Let me know if it works or if you need some other tweaks to it. Unfortunately it won't let you save your changes but at least you can enter the info on a computer.

Good luck,
Steve

it still won't let you save it filled out - but will let you save the parts you fill out as a text file that can be propagated back into the form again the next time you need to print up a new one.

You can try www.pdffiller.com to fill in your pdf forms. It is probably the easiest way to do that. You don`t have to install any software. Just click anywhere and start typing. You can print, Email, fax, or export your form as well.
