RE: [PLUG] PDF read/write


I think i was a little unclear. the forms are online - but they aren't
"online forms"

they are PDF files, that you download and printout and fillin and mail (ie:
college application)

they aren't offered as fill-in forms on the web. 

I didn't want to have to handwrite these application forms, and didn't want
to dig up a typewriter.

but the forms are really just plain PDF representation of paper forms.

So - is there any way then?

comments)

         So then why do you need saving?  Fill and print from Acrobat
Reader!
