Completing fillable forms

Along with the information provided here, you can consult the Adobe Acrobat Reader's online guides (under "Help" in the Reader's toolbar).

Moving within a form

• Enter the appropriate data in each box or "field."
• To move from one field to the next, hit "Tab."
• This helps ensure that you don't accidentally skip over any fields.
• You can also use your cursor to move from field to field.
• Place your cursor in the field you want to fill in, then left-click.

Changing your data

• To replace data you've already entered in a field, place your cursor within the field and then left-click.
• This "selects" the existing data, which you can then adjust or replace.
• To clear the data from all fields and start over, click on the "Clear Page" button located near the top of the form an in some cases at the bottom of the page.

Check-off boxes

• Some forms contain boxes to be checked off.
• Place your cursor over the box you want to check off.
• When your cursor becomes shaped like a hand with its index finger pointing, click your left mouse button.
• In case of error, repeat the process indicated marking the other box.
• To de-select a box, left-click on it again.

Multi-line fields

• Some fields -- for instance, the address field on some forms -- have room for more than one line of text.
• To move to the next line within a field, hit "Enter."
• When you've finished in the field, hit "Tab" to move to the next field.

Specific fields

• Dates: Unless otherwise specified on an individual form, all dates must be entered in the format February 3, 2000.
• Dollar amounts: You must manually enter the decimal point in dollar amounts that include cents.
• If you don't manually enter a decimal point, the system will automatically insert one after the final digit you entered.
• Phone numbers: There is room for you to type in (888) 888-8888,
• Signatures: A fillable form that requires a signature must be signed by hand after you've completed and printed it.
• The system won't let you enter any electronic data in the signature field.
