You cannot usually edit a .pdf file (which was the idea in the first place).
Print it, sign it, scan it and mail it back. Thats the usual course of action.

+1. The main reason people PDF reports is so you can't edit it. This works well when you are sending out a report on a patient or a financial document.

Actually there are Fillable PDF's... but the extension should be .pdf not .doc

I'll check it out if you want to e-mail it to me - username @ username . com

I understand. Adobe .pdf files are usually used when a document is somewhat sensitive. Contracts, legal papers, proposals, estimates, etc.
That way the person receiving it cannot edit it to their liking prior to signing.

In this case, best bet is to print it, sign it, then scan it (if it needs to be re mailed.)
