About completing Adobe PDF forms
Adobe PDF forms can be static or interactive. Static PDF forms must be printed in order
to be filled in, while interactive PDF forms contain form fields you can fill in on-screen. A
PDF form is made interactive if its creator sets up the document with appropriate form
fields and properties in Adobe LiveCycle Designer, Adobe Acrobat Professional, Adobe
® ®
Acrobat 3D, Acrobat Content Server, or even Adobe GoLive CS.
You can print a PDF form or export the form data to a separate file. Exporting form data
allows you to save the existing data, or to transport it with an alternative method such as
email. If you are filling out a PDF form from inside a web browser, you may be able to
submit the form through the web.
When you search for words in a PDF document, the text in form fields is also
searched by default. (See Searching for words in an Adobe PDF document.)
