is this not possible




That depends on two things.

One, if the form actually has fillable form fields (it doesn't sound like it) you can fill it out and save it with Acrobat Standard.

If it doesn't have form fields already, then you'll have to add them yourself before you can fill them out. Adding form fields requires Acrobat Pro.

What version do you have?

There are several different upgrade packages. There is one available
to go from Acrobat 6 Standard to Acrobat 7 Professional, but be
careful what you buy.
