Final answer:

To convert a PDF to a fillable form, you can use Adobe Acrobat DC or G_oogle Drive's workaround involving G_oogle Docs. For users without access to this software, free online PDF editors can also provide this functionality.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert a PDF to a fillable form, you can use various online tools or software. If you have access to Adobe Acrobat DC, it provides a straightforward method:

  • Open the PDF file in Adobe Acrobat DC.
  • Go to the "Tools" panel and select "Prepare Form".
  • The tool will automatically add form fields; you can also manually add them if needed.
  • Save your new fillable form and distribute it as needed.

Alternatively, Go_ogle Drive offers a simple workaround:

  • Sign in to Go_ogle.
  • Upload the PDF file to Go_ogle Drive.
  • Right-click the file, select "Open with," and then choose "Go_ogle Docs".
  • Go_ogle Docs will convert the PDF text into a format that can be edited, and you can then insert form fields using the drawing tool.
  • After inserting the form fields, download the document as a PDF.

If you do not have specialized software, there are many free online PDF editors that can convert your PDF to a fillable form. Just ensure you are using a reputable service, especially if your document contains sensitive information.
