Completing PDF Forms Online

Note: PDF forms can be completed and printed,
but can only be saved to disk when using Acrobat 7.0.

  1. If you do not have Adobe Acrobat or Acrobat Reader installed on your computer, click here or on the link below.

  2. Download the form by clicking on the appropriate link:
         Event Payment Form
         Member Directory Order Form

  3. Your Web browser may be configured with an Acrobat plug-in to automatically open the file within your browsers window upon download. To download the file directly to disk, right click on one of the links above, then select "Save Target/Link As..." when presented with a menu.

  4. Use Acrobat to open the file if necessary.

  5. Select the hand tool from the Acrobat toolbar menu. You can use the hand tool to move the page around so that you can view all the areas on it.

  6. Position the hand pointer inside a form field and click. The I-beam pointer allows you to type text. The arrow pointer allows you to select a field, a check box, a radio button, or an item from a list.

  7. Press Tab to accept the field change and go to the next field. Press Shift + Tab to accept the field change and go to the previous field.

  8. Use your mouse to select an area of the form that is not inside a form field before printing your form. If a form field is active (contains the blinking bar) the contents will not print.

  9. If the fill-in form is displayed within your Web browser's window, be sure to use the printer button on the Acrobat toolbar menu to print the form instead of your Web browser's print function.

  10. Although Adobe Acrobat Reader does not allow the user to save the completed form to a hard drive for future use, the ability to save completed forms is available commercially with the Adobe Acrobat product suite. See their Web site for more information.
