How to use fill-in E-Forms:
In order to view PDF versions of documents you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader plug-in. Some E-Forms can be filled-in and printed directly from Acrobat Reader 3.0 (or later). However, the information entered on a form cannot be saved to disk unless you are using the full Adobe Acrobat software suite.
To ensure your confidentiality and privacy, press "Reset Form"
button after printing or before closing the form.
Filling-in the Form:
- Open the PDF form.
- Select the hand tool from the Acrobat toolbar menu.

- Move the hand pointer inside a gray form field. Click when it changes to an I-beam pointer.
- The I-beam pointer allows you to type text.
- The hand pointer allows you to select a field or check a box.
- Press Tab to go to the next. Press Shift + Tab to go to the previous field.
- You may also use your mouse to move from field to field.
- When you have completed the form, click on "PRINT FORM" button.
FAQ:
- I have tried to save the data entered on my form, but I cannot. How can I save my data so that I can reuse it?
In order to save your data, you must have a purchased licensed version of Adobe Acrobat. The free Adobe Reader (downloaded version) will NOT allow you to save data.
- Can I import text from another software product into my PDF form?
You can cut and paste text from MS Word, WordPerfect, FormFlow, clipboard and most other text software packages into your PDF form.
- How do I print PDF files?
When printing Adobe Acrobat PDF files from within your web browser, do NOT use the web browser print facility. Instead, use the "PRINT BUTTON" on the form or at the left end of the special Adobe Acrobat tool bar, which appears immediately above the viewing window.
