I work in a small company with a number of Mac users, who each used a different program to fill out PDF forms. On one end was the full-blown, and on the other was the freebie. However, I recently (and accidentally) discovered another quick and useful way to add text to PDFs. • Open a new document in Microsoft Word, then go to the Insert menu and select Watermark (this may also work in any word processor that allows pictures as watermarks). • When the Watermark dialog box appears, click the Picture checkbox and then click on the Select Picture button. • Select the PDF you want to fill out and click Insert. Make sure you uncheck the Washout box and leave Scale set to Auto.

• Click OK, and the PDF will appear as the background of your blank document. Now you can complete and save the form for later use. Thank you so much for this hint! I was working to accomplish this very thing on the day this hint was posted. I got it to work in Word X (the original one; I never upgraded).

Microsoft hid the watermark feature in the header (?!). You have to view header/footer and import it there, and then view page layout to see it on the page when you're typing. I also found that by using tables on top of the watermarked pdf is a very easy way to create a simple form that can be reused. Once you get the table cells where you want them, just set the borders to none and hide the gridlines, and you have a customized form only a minute or two! --- Vicki [ ].
