FILLABLE PDF FORM

[zazzhere@adobeforums.com]

How do you make a fillable form using Mac osx (IMAC 10.3.9) and Acrobat 7.0 professional.
Thanks

Use the Forms Tools, on the Advanced Editing toolbar. There is
information in the Help file, but you have to carefully ignore what it
says about "Designer", a Windows only method of making a different
kind of form.

Be sure you have at the START of a project a knowledge of the
limitations of forms. For example, users with the free Reader will not
be able to save or e-mail these forms.

There's plenty. In fact, that's how I taught myself how to use the tools.

Sure, go to Tools>Advanced editing>Show Forms Tool Bar (available in Acrobat Pro only)

You might also consider getting a 3rd party book on Acrobat which gives further explanation on the form tools. One good choice would be Ted Padova's Adobe Acrobat 7 PDF Bible.
