Last year I used the IRS supplied pdf forms to prepare my tax returns. When I finished filling in the "fill-in" pdf forms, somehow, I converted each one to a new pdf form that had *fixed* data for printing out, emailing, etc. But now I can't remember how I did that.
How does one convert a pdf "fill-in" form to a fixed content pdf file?

Definitely not the proper way to do it, but the last time I was in a hurry to do this, I simply printed the PDF to a pdf printer driver...the end result was a new PDF that was static :)

Thanks Charles.  That sounds viable, but I'm not sure how to do that.
I tried to print the document to a file, but reader didn't seem to give me that option. So how does one print to a pdf printer driver?
I'm ashamed to admin that I did it on my windows machine :-o *hangs head in shame* I downloaded "Primo PDF" ( http://www.primopdf.com/ ) which is a free PDF printer driver for windows. It creates a virtual printer, that when you print something to it, creates a PDF and lets you save it. A terrible solution I know, but like I said I was in quite a hurry and didn't have time to do research on how to Do The Right Thing (Tm) :)
