I have quite a bit of experience with creating and modifying Acrobat forms. After going to the site and checking the form, here's the deal: Although this form could be converted to a fillable Acrobat form by adding text fields in the full version of Adobe Acrobat, there are so many little fields it would take many hours of work just to get it ready to fill out. I could also convert it to another format like JPG so you could put it in the background of some type of decent graphics program like PhotoShop and overlay the text, but the pages aren't even aligned well and it would just be a mess. I'm embarrassed for whoever scanned and published this.

My advise is to print out a couple of copies and find a typewriter if your handwriting is that bad. But honestly, they aren't grading you on penmanship. I filled mine out neatly by hand and now I work there.

Maybe I'll see if they'll trade me a couple of vacation days for creating them a nice-looking fillable form.

Good luck!
