I have been using OpenOffice for a while now and am grateful for the ability to create pdf documents. I would like to know however if there is a way to create PDF "Fill-in-Forms" using OpenOffice. So far, I have been able to create fill-in-forms (similar to those available at www.irs.gov to use in the creation of application forms), but converting them to text locks the form fields so that text cannot be inserted.Adobe Acrobat Standard or Professional will create PDF's with live fields. AFAIK, there's no open source program which will produce PDF's with live fields.
If your recipients have OOo, send'em the .sxw with the fields. But if you're looking for something compatible with Reader, then Acrobat is all there is.
