Creating Forms In Pdf's

Do you ever get those PDF’s that have lines and need to be filled out? And you can’t just type and fill out the form because there is no fields. Well, if you have Acrobat pro, then you have a solution…. Well, two simple solutions.

The first, is to go to tools> typewriter. This will allow you to type anywhere on the page.

The second is just as easy. Forms> add or edit fields. You may need to resave your pdf. But just hit okay. It may ask you if you want Acrobat to create fields, the answer is yes. Oh please, yes! The beauty is that Acrobat does all the work. You may need to add or delete some of the created fields. Then just save the document. This is a pdf made correctly. Close the document then open it again. Your fields are in blue. Now you can fill out the fields and tab to the next field.

This is just way too easy!
