I was excited to see that Firefox now has a PDF editor, but when clicked "Try It" and filled in the sample PDF, a humorous farewell to one's printer, the results were horrible. Using all defaults, everything I typed appeared well below the lines provided.

I can't put an X in a check box no matter what I do. This feature is not ready for prime time.

This PDF is not a real form like https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040.pdf, where you can just type directly and check checkboxes. The PDF shown in the what's new page is to show that even PDFs that are not correctly formatted as forms can still be filled in Firefox, thanks to its editing tools.
You can move the text around by clicking on it and dragging it, if you want to position it more precisely.
