Question

I have a PDF form I would like to write about

Aug 17, 2016 1:23AM PDT

I need to fill in a PDF form. I would like to write on it, and put my digital signiture on top of it, and then save it as PDF again. How can I do that?
Also, can I send it from my computer to a fax number?
Thanks in advance.

1. Print it, write on it, sign it, scan it to pdf again. Done.
2. You can send it to a fax number if you have a fax-modem, or use some service on the web. For most receivers, a pdf attached to an e-mail is fine, however.

Try this app. Free from Ninite.com

There are way too many PDF editors but many suffer from adware or worse.

Go get Inkscape from Ninite.com (very important to avoid adware.)

I've used it to open, edit and save it as PDF.

Are you sure it's virus free.

Just under the product link is a virus scan report with a Trojan and more. Not cool.

Type in Non-Interactive Form

If there is no interactive field, to add text, just go to "Edit" menu on the toolbar. Then choose the "Add Text" button and click on the blank area to add a block for entering text. after you complete writing on the PDF form, click the "Save" icon.
