III.  TIPS ON COMPLETING THE FORMS
The   form(s)   in   this   packet   may   contain   “form   fields”   created   using   Microsoft   Word   or   Adobe
Acrobat   (“.pdf”   format).   “Form   fields”   facilitate   completion   of   the   forms   using   your   computer.
They   do   not   limit   your   ability   to   print   the   form   “in   blank”   and   complete   with   a   typewriter   or   by
hand.
It is also helpful to be able to see the location of the form fields.  Go to the View menu, click on
Toolbars, and then select Forms.  This will open the Forms toolbar.  Look for the button on the
Forms toolbar that resembles  a shaded  letter “a”.   Click  this button and  the  form fields  will be
visible. 
By   clicking  on   the  appropriate  form   field,  you  will  be   able   to  enter  the  needed  information.    In
some instances, the form field and the line will disappear after information is entered.   In other
cases, it will not.  The form was created to function in this manner.
