Screenshots: Create interactive PDF forms with the help of these five apps

Introduction

Have you ever had someone send you a PDF form that you had\r\nto print, fill out, and scan before returning it to the sender? Much of this\r\nhassle could have been avoided if the sender had created an interactive PDF\r\nform rather than a simple PDF document. Thankfully, there are lots of tools\r\navailable for generating various types of fill-able PDF forms.

Wondershare PDFelement

Wondershare PDFelement lets you create, convert,\r\nor combine PDF documents. The program has a clean look and could almost pass\r\nfor a Microsoft Office product. Since this program is first and foremost a PDF\r\neditor, it should come as no surprise that it includes features such as\r\nExtract, Search and Replace, Rotate, and Watermark. However, the application\r\nalso has a tab dedicated to forms, which lets you add interactive elements such\r\nas buttons, text boxes, and check boxes.
