Sorry for the slip. You can read PDFs in textEdit but to fill them in
you need PDFPen. Have you given that a try? You can download a free
trial here:

but if you like it they want $60.

Can you make a formal what you have printed it to PDF as I had problems filling
out a form yesterday. I had to email it to my work address and do it on Windows.

Just a little tip. I've had folks who received a PDF I filled out with textEdit
say that the stuff I filled out wouldn't print. Not sure why that was but I
cheated and re-printed it to a PDF on my end and that seemed to fix it. To do
that, even if you don't have a printer set up on the Mac, you just hit
command-P. This will pop a print dialog with various printer options including
picking a printer. Mine said No Printer Selected. Anyway, ignore most of what's
in that dialog and just after the help button you'll find a PDF Menu button and
if you drop that down you'll find Save As PDF as the second option. In general,
you can use this to make a PDF of most document and web pages. Might not always
be super accessible since it's just redirecting printer output. That sometimes
puts parts of the page out of order and other common problems, but it can be
handy.

Curious question: if you fill out a pdf form in TextEdit, does it use rtf
format? Do you then have to export it again to pdf, and does it retain the
formatting?
thanks,
