Type over RIF form?

Can someone refer me to a RIF form that I can actually type the info on to?

I have really bad handwriting and it would be amazing to be able to type the info instead of writing it out.

The one of the official site is an PDF, and unless this is just further evidence of my cluelessness, I can't modify it easily type over it, right? (I bet I could if I really had Abobe, but I don't. I just have the reader.)

Please help or suggest stuff. Thanks!

There is a reason that this is not a MSWord document, and that is not a discussion for GC.
However, if you're diligent, you can copy the entire RIF to MSPublisher or other favorite graphics program and create text boxes in the appropriate spots. I have done this in the past so that I could create a .pdf and forward the entire electronic copy to the appropriate chapter. It's a 'process', but it can be done without altering the true form of the RIF.

Could those of you who are or know some big squirrels maybe talk someone in to doing a locked form for the national webpage so that you can just type over the blanks as text boxes but the form itself can't be edited, pretty please? I will try to do it myself as you suggest, but I bet I'm not the only person who would like it.

Surely, it would be a good thing for the chapters too, right? I can only image that sometimes you have to work hard to read crazy handwriting on at least some of them.

Thanks for the answer, Nancy!
