In
our Member Resources area, interactive
forms can be identified by the
symbol
located beside links to PDF
documents that have active fields
so that members
can type into and print from
their computer. This
allows the printed form to have
the same format/appearance as
the form seen on the screen
or in its print version. Some
of the forms provide various
mathematical computations as
well.
Sample documents are provided throughout the site, for the purpose of being used by municipal officials to draft a modified copy of the document for their municipality.
How
can I use Interactive
.PDF forms?
When
the hand
turns
cursor into a text bar,
you may type into the
field and then tab to
the next one. Some interactive
fields have a slight gray
frame around them so that
they are easier to find.
You
can use the Adobe menu's
disk icon to "Save
a copy of the file" to
save a copy onto your
machine. You can then
use it as often as you
like without going online.
Be
sure to check our site
periodically to determine
if the form has been updated
due to changes in law.
The entered information will not be saved if you are using Adobe
Reader.
If
you are having problems
opening a PDF document,
the usual cause is an
older version of Reader.
To use interactive forms,
you should have 4 or higher.
Go to Adobe and download
a free updated version
of Acrobat Reader by
