Can someone help me convert this file so that I can fill it out online?

Asked by Dutchess_III (46807points) July 1st, 2018

Man, I run across this so often, and figuring out how to make it so I can edit / fill out the application on line, is a day long hunt…and then I’m looking at the same thing again 2 months later and whatever option I used before is no longer available.

Please PM me for the file if you can help.

Thanks

I am guessing this a PDF. They are designed not to be edited, so anybody who prints it gets the same thing.

Rather than edit it, you can type over it with a free program.

On a Mac, Preview allows you to type on top of the PDF – How to edit images and mark up PDFs with Preview on your Mac

The Windows program PDF-XChange Viewer does the same.

Perfect. And I know you guys have helped me with this same thing in the past.
Thank you.

Hey! For anyone who may come after me with this same (frustration) question, notice that on the PDF-XChange Viewer that @Call_Me_Jay posted, when you open it there is a rather obscure mention of a replacement for the PDF-XChange viewer. I was able to load the replacement program and it really works better than any PDF modifier I’ve ever used.

See here for what I’m referring to (circled in red.)
