Non-interactive Form
The document message bar will not appear. This kind of form acts like an
ordinary PDF document that has plain text and you will need to use the
Typewriter feature to fill in this form.
Filling in PDF Forms
PDF form operation: Foxit Reader allows you to fill in PDF forms and print them
out. These basic features are free for both personal and non-personal usage.
Moreover, Foxit Reader supports advanced form operations, such as saving
filled-out forms and import/export forms.
Filling interactive forms
If a PDF form contains interactive form fields, you can fill in the form with the
Hand Tool . When you place the pointer over an interactive form field, the
pointer icon changes to one of the following:
Pointing Finger -- Appears when the pointer is over a button, radio
button, check box, or item on a list.
Arrow -- Appears when you can select an item in a list of options.
I-beam icon -- Appears when you can type text into the form field.
