<p>Acrobat Approval is discontinued software - it was discontinued Sept. 2004 and is no longer supported by Acrobat, and is not compatible with later versions of Acrobat.</p>

<p>The reasons I posted the links to CutePDF above is that it is (a) FREE, try-before-you-buy software, in a form that is probably adequate to meet the needs of anyone who only has a few forms to fill out, (b) cheap for anyone who wants the fully functional copy, and (c) legal.</p>

<p>Darnit! Oh, well. I used it for grant proposals.</p>

<p>The tool I have been using is [On-line</a> PDF form Filler, Editor, Type on PDF ; Fill, Print, Email, Fax and Export](<a href=“http://pdffiller.com%5DOn-line”>http://pdffiller.com) . It’s not free, but allows fill in non fillable forms, email, fax and sign it. You can save a copy on your account also. It helped me a lot when I applied to college 2 years ago. Good luck :)</p>

<p>This is what we did and it worked fine. It’s easiest stick with the same computer and the same printer when you go back in to edit or print.</p>

<p>My son used the watermark on Word documents technique also. It worked well. Our printer has a scanner feature so he also scanned paper scholarship apps, and then was able to set the form as a picture watermark. If you use this method, be sure to uncheck the “Washout” box when entering the watermark info.</p>

<p>DS is sleeping now, but I believe he told me that there’s a free google program that allows one to fill-in pdfs. I’ll check when he’s awake later in the day (about 8 hours from now).</p>

<p>You can open the PDF in Photoshop, use the text tool to type on the forms, then save it as a PDF.</p>

<p>A little cumbersome, but it works.</p>
