The pdfedit package did the trick for me. This is probably "overkill",
but_it_just_works      :-)

Adobe Reader is only a "reader" as I assumed it would be. Some PDF
readers can also fill in forms, do editing, etc., however not Adobe
Reader.

Another solution is to use a free online service, such as
http://www.pdfescape.com/
and upload the file, fill in the form and/or edit the file, and then
download it again.

Possibly this thread will help someone else. Thank you, again, to
everyone who replied and provided information and ideas!   Lanny
