Love your new capability to edit pdf files. It would be great if you could add an editing feature that would allow the adding of interactive form boxes such as those the IRS uses to a non interactive pdf.

Hey @Don_McCunn, thanks for the idea! Could you share a bit more about your use case? I wonder how frequent it is for people to want to create PDF forms.

I just did a long explanation but it could not be authenticated so it disappeared. It happened when I did a link from the email I received. You might want to check that out. I am going to try a short version to see if it is accepted.

There is a huge difference between a static and interactive PDF form. My final example was restaurant menus where the customer could fill out an interactive menu which gets transmitted to the kitchen and can also be sent by cell phone to the person's computer or where ever. Selfie photos are very popular these days. An interactive PDF file with forms that could be filled out would be the text equivalent to photos. Just as one example, it works for the IRS.
