Is anyone else having issues with typing on the secondary? I don't want to fill it in by hand, but I have not been able to do it on the computer

Yeah, I've had a problem typing it, too, so I'm going to do my best hand-writing job. I'm going to do the same for the VCOM secondary.
im having the same issue, I called them and all they told me was that they have received typed secondaries already.
She said I could print it out and then type it (and it sounded like she DEFINETLY did not want to have a handwritten secondary)

hmmm....since I don't have a type writer or anything like that then I'm not sure how I'm supposed to type it up. Did she say they wouldn't read them if they were handwritten?
BTW...CuttinEmUp is that really you in that picture?

I see...lots of hours in the gym.
What would they say if we just attached a sheet of paper with the secondary for all the questions that require more than a couple lines?
Do you think that would be OK?

You can type in .pdf forms with adobe acrobat, but it needs to be acrobat, not just the reader. There is a tab that lets you fill in forms. I used it for almost every app so far

That's the point, right? Not many people have adobe acrobat, only the free reader. Maybe I'm missing something...

I have the adobe acrobat professional, but what tab are you talking about?
Go to tools, advanced editing, and then text field tool. You can then make text boxes and pick your fonts and size, but dont let the size stay on auto, it will reflect the size of the box you make. Then hit the hand button on the taskbar and you can freely type.

Thank you very much, you literally saved the day! 🙂
i still have the application sitting around because it came later than the others, but I plan to type the longer responses in MS Word and just attach it, as long everything is well organized and easy to read I am sure the committee will not think less of you for not filling out the "official" form. just my opinion.
