COMPLETING, PRINTING AND/OR SAVE SCREEN FILLABLE PDF FORMS
Some of the forms on this site are “fillable” on your computer. This means that you can conveniently
complete such form right on your computer by simply typing information into a form’s displayed fields.
You can then print your completed form to your printer or print to PDF to save the completed form to your
computer.
Software required to view and complete Screen Fillable PDF forms
To access, view, download, complete and print fillable forms you will need to use Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0
(or later). Adobe Acrobat Reader is available for free and can be downloaded from the following web site:
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep.html.
Please Note: The free Acrobat Reader does not allow you to save a completed, or a partially completed form
on your computer. If you wish to electronically save a completed form, or retain your work on a partially
completed form, you must purchase additional software - Adobe Acrobat 5.0 (or later) or Adobe Acrobat
Approval 5.0. For more information about these products, please see the web page: http://www.adobe.
com/products/acrobat/readstep.html.
Downloading and Saving Blank PDF screen-fillable forms.
There are two options to save the form to your computer’s hard drive.
a. Save the Form Without Viewing: right-click on the hyperlinked form title, select “Save Target As” (Internet
explorer) or “Save Link As” (Netscape) and save the blank form to the computer directory or folder of your
choice.
b. View the Form, then Save: double-click on the hyperlinked form title. With Acrobat Reader installed on
your computer (or a purchased Adobe Acrobat product), the form will open within your browser displayed
by the Acrobat Reader software. To save the form to your computer, click on the small disk icon that appears
in the upper left hand corner of the Adobe Reader frame and again select the directory or folder of your
choice.
Once saved, you may access the form at your convenience on your computer using Acrobat Reader (or a
purchased Adobe Acrobat product).
Complete Forms Offline in the Adobe Reader. Avoid Completing Forms Online within your Browser.
Please Note: Although you can fill in a form while it is displayed within your browser, we strongly
recommend that you not do so. You will lose all entered form data if you browse to other web pages in the
same browser window that you are using to display the screen fillable form. You run the risk of accidentally
deleting all of your entered form data by inadvertently clicking on the “back or “forward” buttons on your
browser. Clicking either of these buttons will close the form and delete of all your information.
We recommend that you open the Acrobat Reader program, click on file/open and locate the form saved on
your computer hard drive. Then fill out the form in Acrobat Reader independently from your browser or your
Internet connection.
Once you have located and downloaded a desired form to your PC, you are now ready to begin filling out
the form.
