Re: Fill out PDF Form

I've been using Acrobat Standard to "fill out" forms for a long time now.  I
have to produce so many of certain kinds that it was worth the effort.  Use
Tools -> Advanced Commenting - Text Box.  The right click on the box and
change the properties to remove the frame (set line width to zero) and set
the background color to no color etc..  I have those settings saved as my
default.  It is a bit laborious as every piece of text has to be entered as
a separate field and them positioned, but it beats keep filling out the
damned thing by hand.

On some forms the touch up text tool will work but most times I resort to
the method above.

If you use the commenting method remember to print the form including
comments or you'll think you wasted your time!
