If there are Acrobat PDF form fields, not jus a space for a form field, then you will have to add them. It would be better to ask the provider of the form to add the fields. If you cannot add the fields, then you can use the add text feature.
Have you looked in the "Tools" panel for the "Forms" category?

How do you fill in a form that was saved as a template? When I try, the "template" shifts, which is not how a template should work!

How do you fill in a form that was saved as a template? When I try, the "template" shifts, which is not how a template should work!
Templates, as I understand them, are fixed; you can "fill them in" without shifting them. Yet, I've saved doc as a template AND it shifts. Argh!

Thanks for your response.
I've managed to fix it but I wouldn't recommend the following as I'm sure its unsupported and I'll probably have problems down the line
On the host
* mv /etc/zones /etc/zones.bak
* reboot single user
* apply kernel patch (the one that ultimately I had to get on and which was giving pre-req dependency errors when running zones)
* create a new zone now that host system is all up to date
* Copy the operating system directories of the new zone (the one that's all patched) over the troublesome zone (the one that can't take the patch). Take backups first
* cd /zones/new-zone/root
* find sbin -print | cpio -pudm /zones/bad-zone/root
* find usr -print | cpio -pudm /zones/bad-zone/root
* find lib -print | cpio -pudm /zones/bad-zone/root
* cd /zones/new-zone/root/var
* find sadm -print | cpio -pudm /zones/bad-zone/root/sadm (this copies patches and pkgs directories and I'm sure a lot of other stuff that I didn't want)
* mv /etc/zones.bak /etc/zones
* reboot host
* boot the old zone up. It should now have up to date patches
I'm sure there are real no-no's in taking this approach but it seems to have worked for me. I'll update if I find there are some horrors down the line

How can I fill in a form that was emailed to me?

Hi zygmuntc,
You can use the Fill&Sign online service to fill out that form. Or, if it's a PDF form, you can open it in the free Adobe Reader and fill it in there.
Please let us know if you have additional questions.
Best,

I need to install Mozella Firefox 2.0 to fill out a form that is not supported with the newer version that is installed on my PC. Do I need to delete the new version before using the older version?

I need to install Mozella Firefox 2.0 to fill out a form that is not supported to input info from the newer version that is installed on my PC. Do I need to delete the newer version before using the older version? If so, how do I delete the new version and install the older version?

If you just need it for one site you can use the portable version of Firefox 2 instead. You can install the portable version on a USB key, or if one is not available choose the custom install and install it somewhere on your hard drive. The portable version will not interfere with your current version of Firefox. You can get the portable version from http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable - the link for Firefox 2.0.0.20 is near the bottom of that page.

I am filling out a form that requires me to put a passport photo using Adobe Reader.

I am filling out a form that requires me to put a passport photo using Adobe Reader.
However, when I click on the square to insert the photo, a screen pops up telling me to "select a PDF file and import it as an image" and just an "OK" button to press.
When running the debugger, I get NotAllowedError: Security settings prevent access to this property or method. Field.buttonImportIcon:6:Field Click here to add a photo:Mouse Up. Any way around it? Below is the problem I'm talking about.

Thanks for your reply.
I've converted photos into pdf format and it still won't allow me to insert the photo. I wouldn't know whether it'd be too large or small since I cannot insert it in the first place.
"Warning: Javascript Windows: Select the PDF file to import this button as an image" is the message that keeps appearing. I can't seem to find anything related to this.

How do I fill out a form already converted from pdf to word

how do I fill out a form i converted from pdf to a word doc?

What kind of "form" is it? A .pdf or .doc file?
Generally I would save the file somewhere (desktop or document folder). There is a save button for attachments in mail's header section. Then open the file with an appropriate app like Adobe Reader for .pdf files or Word or Pages for .doc files. Fill out the form and save. Then email the form back as an attachment.

How may i fill out a form on a scanned form saved in pdf format?

how may i fill out a form on a scanned form saved in pdf format?

With Acrobat you can either add interactive form fields (manually or with the Form Wizard), or you can use the Typewriter tool to add a type of text comment. Exactly how you do either of these depends on which version of Acrobat you're using.
If you only have Reader, there's nothing you can if the document doesn't have interactive form fields or if it hasn't been Reader-enabled to allow use of the typewriter tool or other commenting.

How do i edit a PDF file that was sent to me in an email?

How do i edit a PDF file that was sent to me in an email?

Depends on the extent of the edits. You will need Acrobat in any case. If the edits or minor, you can use the text edit tool. For major edits, you need to request the original file be sent or see if you can Save As a DOC or related file type. PDFs are not really structured for editing and you are asking for a lot of grief if you want to do much. Exporting is the best way, or even better simply asking the author for the original (non-PDF type).

Adobe Reader is not an e-mail reader!!
You can open PDF file attachments to e-mail in Adobe Reader if your e-mail client allows for selection of the application to open a particular attachment.

How do you fill out a form more than once from a single computer?

URGENT QUESTION...
I am using a FormsCentral form as a Job Interview form. The interviewer needs to clear the form after each submission to fill the form out again for the next person interviewed.
She tells me that she can't see how to clear the form to fill it out for the next interview, and I don't have the answer. Would appreciate receiving that answer real fast, and the next interview will be at 11am EST today.
Thanks.

Randy,
Answering your question about how I created the initial PDF form...
I created it with the Employment Application template in FormsCentral, adding many additional questions to the template. When I finished doing that, my recollection is that I clicked on “Save as PDF Form.” And that worked fine.
The PDF form was then accessed by the interviewer without any problem. She dutifully filled out the blanks, clicked on the SUBMIT button, and the first report then showed up as expected in FormsCentral under “My Forms.”
We don’t particularly want to have this form online, although we can put it online if necessary. Since there is only one interviewer who will be filling out this PDF form during the interview of each job applicant, our only issue is how to most easily clear the form after each interview is posted, without losing the SUBMIT button.
Thanks,
JS

How do I fill in a form that should be updatable but isn't?

This is an online PDF form with a purple stripe across the top that says "Please fill out the following form. I've also tried "Sign>Add Text" and trialed Acrobat XI Pro and Forms Central to no avail. I am an Adobe Novice ... What to do? Help, please.

Where did you get the form? What do you mean by "updatable" This seems like a question that should be targetted to the Acrobat forum (http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat) and not the FormsCentral forum.
If you want me to have a look at the form to see why you can't fill it out just send it to me ([email protected]).

How can I see the actual FORM that was submitted?

I need to see ALL data on the form after it's submitted to me. NOT just the data filled out in the form. I applied logic rules to certain JPEGs that should pop up upon correct anwser! Can you please tell me how see ALL data?????
Thanks!

I may be mis-understanding what you are doing, but skip logic doesn't work differently for text/jpeg...
In your form, I was assuming the JPEG images were images that you added, and that they are only shown based on certain answers to other questions, is that correct? If this is correct then it does not matter whether it is text or images, all questions and responses are shown in the PDF, the images would be shown, also any answers that exposed images to the user in the web form would show as answered and you would know what they had entered even though you'd see all of the images.
Or, are you having users upload JPEG images using an "Attachment" field?
If the latter was the case, these are user supplied images, then the PDF Response would only show the file name, and not contain the image. Is that what you are describing/seeing?
Thanks,
Josh

I want to fill in a survey that was sent to me without having it add all the spaces, can I do this?

i am trying to fill out a survey without having spaces added when I type, can someone help me?

Use Tabs to position your text and type where the tab starts.
Not quite as neat as Word.
