Hi, What you need is this:

 

http://code-industry.net/pdfeditor.php

 

it is cross-platform (Windows, Mac, GNU/Linux) - and can even edit M$ XPS files.

 

Free for private use.

I use infix pro.

PDFs are generally read only - unless you have a PDF editor, assuming there are not content locked.

 

Just as swarf said above - download an install a PDF editor (both the suggestion here are good) and edit away, making sure you save up (maybe rename or "save as" for extra compliance if sending back to the same company you downloaded it from - just in case)

I use Foxit PDF editor, to write on PDF. Or else you can take a print of the application, write down manually, then scan the document and send it via email attachment.

Assuming you are using Adobe PDF reader to view and fill in your form

You will need Adobe reader version XI.0.0.0 or greater

 

The current version of Adobe Reader is available from the follow Adobe FTP site

Ensure you uninstall the previous version before installing the current one.

 

ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/11.x/11.0.09/

If you have a combined printer and scanner (most people have nowadays) you could always print it off, fill it in by hand, scan it, and send it back.

 

Good luck!
