Acrobat is for making PDF files ? student reports, school board communications, SPED plans, parent communications, archiving, teacher productivity, administrative forms, lesson plans

Adobe 7.0 Pro allows you to make a form that can be filled out on line with anyone that has Adobe Reader:

Select Tools
Typewriter
Enable typewriter tool in Adobe Reader

This will allow anyone who is using reader to fill in as you would on a typewriter.

There are lots of ways to create fields including fields with a drop down list, totaling with a formula as one would in Excel, create elements that can be reused in another form, write scripting using javascript, fields that can be limited in size or grow as large as needed, digital signature, digital approval, and to upload fields into a database.
