RIF form question
 
I'm hoping someone who actually does membership can answer this although it doesn't involve any secret info:

I noticed the most recent RIF form is type over which thrills me. It's also two pages which doesn't make any difference to me but might matter to the folks at a chapter using it.

I can either print my RIFs front and back, which is my inclination so they are one page, or I can print them so that the last couple of sections come out on a new page. There seems possibly to be a strategic break from page one to page two, and I think it's possible that the chapters would prefer them to be two separate pages.

Can anyone who handles RIFs at the chapter level let me know if it matters and what you'd prefer?

ETA: Well, now I can't get the 2nd page to print with my form information filled in. I don't think it's a problem with my printer since it prints the form itself perfectly. Any suggestions?

Thank you!

I PM'd you before your edit. That's strange - the first page prints fine? Are you using Adobe Reader or Acrobat Pro?

Just Acrobat Reader. It's really strange, the stuff I filled in on the 1st page printed with the form info, but the second page wanted to print like I left the filled in stuff blank.

Hmmm. Can you save it, close it, and open it again to see if it at least saved properly?

I printed a copy with "TEST TEST TEST" all over all the form fields and it worked for me, I'm using Acrobat Pro (since I'm at work).

Have you been able to print yet? I might be able to print them for you and send them, if you like.

You are so kind to offer that. I think I'll be okay with what I have because worst case scenario, I'll just print the 2nd page form and fill it in. My printer prints the blank form perfectly.

I tested switching computers to see if maybe the laptop I'd been using was missing some software or something, but the new computer does the exact same thing. So I guess it's the printer that's having trouble.

Here's what's really weird to me: I can print the first page fine, and it will print whatever I've typed in the form part. It just seems to be the Recommender's Info section from the last page that won't print correctly if filled in.

Thank you for your help!

That's so strange.
