unfortunately no at least as far as i know acroread 5.5 does quite good when it comes to fill out forms created by acrobat 5.5 or earlyer. but th moment you run across any newer document the only choice you have is to search for the damn windows cd's you wanted to bin ages ago... i keep a win2k on vmware just for adobes acrobat. it's the only choice i have when i get back documents from my boss. he uses acrobat 6 to annotate it and no linux-based pdf viewer is able to show these annotations. the same is true for some fill-out forms from our business travel department and some controlers... they want it back electronically and only acrobat full version is able to store back filled forms. there we go and need winFUCK because adobe is not willing to release acrobat for linux i really spent a good bunch of time searching for an appropriate tool but there is none. greets mlo > >TIA, > > > > > > Are you referring to a fillable PDF form, as one created in > Acrobat Professional or some such Adobe product?
