Overview

Benefits & Payroll Services now offers the option of filling out PDF forms electronically from our website and printing them on a personal printer using Adobe Acrobat 3.0 products (instructions may require some information to be handwritten on the form).

Software Requirements

You must have the free Acrobat 3.0 Reader (or later) software installed on your computer to view, complete and print Benefits & Payroll Services fill-in forms.  Acrobat Reader does not allow you to save your completed forms to disk.  The ability to save completed forms is available commercially with the Adobe Acrobat 3.0 (or later) product suite.

How to Fill in the Form

• Download the form by clicking on the link of the file you want to download.  If you have the Acrobat plug-in, this will automatically open up the file within your browser window.  Or you can download the file to your hard disk by right-clicking on the link and selecting "Save Target As" or "Save Link As".

• When the file is open, select the hand tool from the Acrobat toolbar menu.  You can use the hand tool to move the page around to view all areas on the page or you can select the zoom feature (magnifying glass with a +) to "zoom in" on a particular part of the page.

• After selecting the hand tool, position the hand pointer inside a form field and click.  The I-beam pointer allows you to enter text from your keyboard.  You can also select a check box, a radio button, or an item from a list.

• Press Tab to accept the field change and go to the next field.

• Press Shift + Tab to accept the field change and go to the previous field.

• Use your mouse to select an area of the form that is not inside a form field before printing your form.  If a form field is active (if you see a blinking bar) the contents will not print.
