My problem is sending the forms to people who must fill out the

Adobe Reader doesn't allow saving a filled-in from
or returning the filled-out form by E-mail.

My 1st thought was to sent them the thing in *.DOC,
have them fill in the blanks and do a Print-to-document
thru one of the many Output-as-PDF printer drivers,

then have them sent the PDF back to you.

....then I thought about **why PDF?**
I'm thinking you want the *data* portions to be easily edited
but NOT the *boilerplate*--so you don't have to
go back over the whole thing with a fine-toothed comb.
Yes??
I don't use Adobe's PDF-creation app,
but I'm assuming this can be done with *locked layers*
--but **they** need to have the writer app to do this
(and one assumes the proper VERSION).

PDF editing sounds like a quagmire.

ISTM this is something to do thru a Web page e.g. Javascript.
