Hi everyone,

Has anyone had trouble with PDF-Read Only Supplementals that are not set up in a form-format for you to fill out? I cannot type on them and when I got Adobe Professional, I have to make a text box for every single field which takes FOREVER.

How did everyone fill out PDF supplementals that were not in a form format to be filled out? Did you print them out and just write really neatly? Will schools look down on the application if it is hand-written in ink, even if its very neat and legible?

Thank you!
 
See if you can find someone that works in an office with a typewriter. The other option is to use the typewriter option in Adobe (same as text box). Most school's discourage hand-writing and some even outright refuse to accept handwritten applications.
