Best way of filling in a PDF form

Hi

Does anyone have a method of filling in PDF forms electronically? I have both acrobat (The creator) and the reader.

Thanks

If you've got Acorbat Pro (the Creator) then you can edit .pdf documents, unless they're protected (as some official documents are!)

Hmmm I tried serveal times - its just seems very messy as the text boxes does not always match the grid.

Forgot both PS and Illustrator can open .pdf's for editing (so can CorelDraw from 10 upward but I wouldn't try it in anything less than X3)
You should be able to allign the text in the box's better using these!! :cool:

The last time I filled in a pdf form, I used the typewriter tool. Though it took some getting used to, as in moving it around, so it fits in nicely and I sometimes forgot, it doesnt do a new line for you.. You have to actually hit enter to start a new line or it goes off the screen lol.
