I had, in the past, a .pdf reader that also permitted me to fill in some information, when I received a .pdf file.
I have KPDF installed, but that seems to only have Reader capability.

Received a contract via email and I would like to add some information and send it back via email.

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
