How to fill-in a PDF form?

I'm trying to fill in a PDF form. Is it possible to make a form editable? I'm also not very computer-literate. Any help would be deeply appreciated.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to achieve this as we are keen to introduce this option on our own online forms?

How to fill in a PDF form after client fills in HTML form

i guess i need to try this a second time.
i have been to numerous sites where they ask a user to fill in lot of fields with a html web form, and then when all done all that filled in data gets transferred into PDF forms for the client to print out, ertc
tyopical sites i have seen this with are brokerage accounts for stock and commodities. all the major houses use this format, along with electronic signatures, etc ec etc
so, the client fills out an html form, presses enter, and voila a pdf form shows up with all *its* fields filled in with the information the client supplied in the html form.
this is what i am trying to figure out how to do. i have been searching the internet for 10 days now, about 4 hrs a day on this and i still have not found the code for this
my site is PHP, but java i guess would work as well.
any way, i am getting way behind on this project and if anybody knows where the code is to make this hapen at my site i'd be grateful to find out :)
THANKS!!!

How to fill data in PDF form?

Hi All,
I have a pdf forms(about 100). Now I need to open that forms in the browser. User can fill that form and that data should be filled in the database/XML file. Then when user come again then that form details must be displayed in that form.
Please suggest me some path as I am totally blank about this concept.
Regards.

Hi Leonard,
Thank you very much for the reply.Our users have only reader at their side. Can we set up any kind of software implementation at server side? Or with the use of the .NET(C#) ?
Can you please provide me some link to initiate this project? Actually I don't know how to start this.
Any help would be appreciated.

The add annotations field shows as not allowed in the security options. So how do I send this form back with the changes??

I think you you need to click 'save' first, then it is saved to acrobat, where it will prompt to send.

I have been creating forms in InDesign and pulling into Acrobat XI Pro to do form fields. My client would like to fill in the PDF form using Reader, save under a different name locally on their device, and redistribute. The problem I have is that, sometimes, they want to redistribute the form as Read Only. I know how to flatten the form on a mobile device, but uncertain how they can do that with a PC or Mac using Adobe Reader. I looked at FormsCentral thinking there might be a solution going that route, but don't believe there is. Any advice?

FormsCentral won't help with flattening a form. You could set up the form in Acrobat so that the fields are set to read-only, using JavaScript. Not quite the same as flattening but it's the best Reader can do.
Note that when Reader is used to e-sign a document, it gets flattened, but this won't be possible if you need to Reader-enable the form and under certain other conditions.

I used Preview to fill in a .pdf form. I saved it, re-opened and saw my annotations. When I attached it to an email, the annotation and filled-in materials were no there. What's happening?

Having been gently chided by "How to write a good question," I offer additional information as a preamble to my question.
I am writing about Preview 7.0 (826.4) on Mavericks 10.9.4; my computer is a MacBook Pro, late 2011 model with not modifications.
I used Preview to fill in a .pdf form and saved it. To check, I re-opened the form and saw all the info I had filled in. However, when I attached it to an email, the info was not there; the form contained none of the info I had added. I re-did the form several times, but the results were the same when I attached it to email. What's going on?
Here's a secondary matter. When I filled in the form, the print was red and the type too large. Though I went into fonts, etc. and selected a type size and color black, the info I added was still red and the wrong size. Again, how do I manage color, size, and font?

Form document will automatically be saved after closing the file. As far as cloud message is concerned, it seems your Mobile link setting has been turned on. When you pressed device back button after filling the form, it was saved to your Acrobat.com account. You can access this document by going to Acrobat.com tab present in left pane. Its a cloud storage area where you can upload/save any document.
Thanks,

HT2506 Font size filling out a PDF form in Preview?

Hello. Anyone know if I can change Font size when filling out a PDF form in Preview? If so, how? Thanks a lot.

Whilst in the Preview application, press "Shift - Command - A" (⇧⌘A) simultaneously to show the markup toolbar, or click View, and select "show markup toolbar". There is an icon "A" near the right hand side of the now visible markup toolbar, click this icon to reveal all the font options.

Can't fill in Adobe PDF forms

Hi ... I'm once again turningi to my favorite trusted resource for problems ... MAC users!
I have been unable to figure out how to fill in interactive forms in PDF format ... it just doesn't work! I've read Adobe's help pages for Adobe Reader 8.0 and can't find a workable fix. The help pages mention tool bars I don't have and icons that don't appear.
It kills me that my PC Internet Explorer friends can fill out and submit forms online and I can't.
What am I missing here? All help greatly appreciated!!

Carol, in case you didn't realize it, the problem might not be on your end. It could be the particular form that's causing the problem. Not all forms are created as "interactive." If the creator did not create an "interactive" form, I don't believe there's anything you (OR a PC user) can do except pull out the old typewriter or pen.
If you'd like to test a form that's definitely interactive, try downloading this one:
http://www.utc.edu/Administration/Admissions/secure/UTCApplication.pdf
I've just tried this particular one and had no difficulty using Adobe Reader 8. You shouldn't need any "tool," rather simply click on any of the interactive fields and start typing.
Incidentally, interactive PDFs also work with Preview, the program which comes with OSX, so you might wish to try that as well. It also worked fine for me on this particular form.
If the form turns out not to be the problem, be sure to post back as I'm sure someone can help figure this out. You definitely should be able to fill out a PDF form, so long as it was created as interactive.

I have Adobe Creative Cloud. How do I edit a PDF form I created at work and e-mailed to my home tablet?

Hi Val,
I see! Please see this thread: Is FormsCentral part of the Creative Cloud?
Creative Cloud doesn't include FormsCentral, which is why you're being prompted to upgrade. (An Acrobat Pro subscription, on the other hand, does include FormsCentral.)
Best,

How do I edit a pdf form content?

I have filled out a pdf form and want to edit what I've added to the form. When i use "Content Editing - edit text & images" I'm only allowed to edit the form itself. What format should the pdf be in to edit the content I've added to the form?

If you've edited the values of form fields then you should be able to edit
them again, just like you did before. Select the Hand tool for that. No
need to any special editing tool...

How do I create a Pdf form for others?

I have finally figured out how to make a pdf form, but my client wants to be able to attach the file to his e-mail and send it to his relations.
How do I create a pdf form with his adress in stead of my own e-mailaccount?
Tried to adjust my id in the preferences on my Mac, but that is not a safe way I guess...
Can anybody help me out, I'm stuck...
Bob

Yes, I want to enable the client's relations to be able to click on a link
in the pdf to automatically submit the pdf to his e-mail address.
Now a purple bar shows up when a 'relation' opens the pdf form.
In this bar is a button included for sending the form, but they have to
confirm the adding of their reaction to the 'reactions-file'. This refers to
the location where I authenticallly saved the file (on my hard disk).
I can adjust the reply e-mail adress by temporarily adjusting my id in
Acrobat preferences, but I don't know the future location of the reaction
file.
It's a difficult question, but it's based on the question: Is it possible to
make a pdf form for somebody else; so they can send en receive the reactions
on their moment and their wanted location?

hi bob
are you saying the email address is on the pdf as plain text? or are you
wanting to enable the client's ³relations² to be able to click on a link in
the pdf to automatically submit the pdf to his email address?

How do I put a PDF form onto my website?

New to Acrobat. Just bought 8 Pro for Mac version. How do I embed a PDF form onto my website?
Also, if the process to do this is hard, would upgrading to version 9 make it any easier? Thanks.

It depends on how the user's system is set up. Normally, the PDF will open in the browser, not just downloaded.
It is possible to embed a PDF in an HTML page, for example: http://blogs.adobe.com/pdfdevjunkie/2007/08/using_the_html_embed_tag_to_di.html
But note that not all users will have a PDF viewer installed, and not all PDF viewers are produced by Adobe, so this will not work for everyone. The above link cause my Firefox browser to crash, but it works with my Internet Explorer browser.

Instead of printing it, try saving it as a pdf from the print menu, and then printing the pdf out.
