Acrobat Reader I assume? If it's version 5, one can fill in form fields and save 
the PDF. In version 6 of "Adobe Reader", one can only fill in the form fields, 
one can't save the PDF with them in. Of course this is assuming there are in 
fact form fields to begin with and not simply a scanned form/application saved 
as a PDF.

If you wish, off list help, drop me a line.
