Note that *every* instance that I've done that, acroread tells me that I *must* print it, and that I *cannot* save it filled out. That, of course, is solved by the pdfprinter driver for CUPS, though that leaves me with a filled out, but un-re-editable document. And yes, I have a bunch of purchase requests that I filled out in the last couple of years that were like this, and yes, I used acroread. mark
