Irene

To fill in an on line form you need Adobe reader version six or above. The
current version is seven which should work.

As George says you need a full version of Acrobat version six or above to
make the document.

Kind regards

Probably a silly question but do you need something more than PDF Reader
to fill in an electronic PDF form?  If so, perhaps that's why it never
caught on.

There are such things as interactive PDF documents (I think that is the
correct term), but I have never seen one in the wild.  These allow you t
fill them out, I once had a demonstration document that does this and it
even worked with Jaws.  However PDF documents consist almost entirely of
non-editable documents principly designed to be downloaded, printed and
filled out by hand.  The electronically fillable PDF has never caught on
despite being potentially in existence for over 5 years.

  Hi Karina and Kerry.

  I can't answer your questions directly because as others have said,
PDF=0D
  documents are quite simply not the format to distribute documents in
if the=0D
  user is meant to change them.  I assume that in the case of the
application=0D
  forms, the user is meant to print out the PDF document and write it by
hand.=0D
  This is clearly not accessible.  There was a bit of a fad a while ago
about=0D
  getting experts to analyse handwriting in application forms but I have
not=0D
  heard of it recently so hopefully this practise is now discredited.

  Kerry, can you explain a little more about the process taking place
here?=0D
  distributing a PDF for the user to change just seems an odd thing to
do.

  Regards

  Graham

  Hi Kerry,
  I'm in exactly the same situation with job application forms as some
of
  them are in PDF and no other format and won't let me do anything with
  them.  Is there a way of overcoming this, because what I want to do is
  add my information in electronically.  It seems a bit of a silly
format
  to me if I'm honest, why not just have a read-only word document, but
if
  you want to change it you have to put a password in.
  Any ideas about how I can overcome the application forms situation?

  Thanks.

  Karina

  Sorry Daren.  NO Good.  I have documents that are already created but
  need to put my information into them.

  Thanks.

  Hi

  Not to edit existing ones, but I've got one that can create
  them, and it's free.

  Let me know if that's of interest.

  Hi.  Does     anyone know of an accessible free or
  relatively cheap
  piece of software that will allow you to edit pdf documents?

  Thanks.
