Open a PDF?

[LiamC]

I just downloaded an application from the lidl website and its in PDF. However when i open it i cannot write anything.

Is there a program i can use that will allow me to fill it out on the PC rather than print it off ( Dont have printer connected ) then scan it back onto my PC.


Thanks !


PS - Tried MS word etc

Do they not want you to hand in a physical copy? Impress them with your neatness.

If they've made it to be openly editable, you can do it in Adobe Reader like normal (I had to fill in a 20 page form recently and it worked).

Otherwise, um dunno. Got the full version of Adobe Acrobat?

You can use gimp to convert PDFs into JPG etc.

Acrobat Reader should allow you to fill in a PDF form, I've used it before.

I think adobe reader will only allow you to fill it in if they specifically placed form fields, if it's just a normal pdf document with only text then you can't edit it with reader.

There's a pdf plugin for OO that allows you to import/export PDFs, all free, but it doesn't always get the formatting correct.
