I have yet to have a PDF version of a W9 form allow me to fill it in completely without telling me some portion of the thing will not allow a text field and/or signature. It's a real fucking pain in the ass, is what it is.

My usual hack for this nonsense is to convert it to a word document and then back to a PDF. That usually works for me.

State-level charitable org financial report forms, JESUS FIX IT (or give me the power to). Less infuriating but still annoying: the random field with a wildly different font setting.

it is. i find opening them in notability on my ipad allows me to write on *anything*, and then i can export it again, no problem. but, one shouldn’t have to do it.

Once I got one W9 done, I just send a copy of that PDF to whomever requests one. In at least my experience, there is no need to do a new one each time just because they send you a blank. Perhaps your requests are different, though.

I created my own that I keep on hand and fill out then Save As for any clients. Only way I got around that.

PDFs would be great if they just allowed for fillable fields ALWAYS, until you're done, then you hit submit, an it saves a copy of the form with the answers to your desktop i honestly don't know why Adobe doesn't make it this way across the board... greed i guess

I am having this exact problem, despite being trained to create fillable forms in Acrobat. I could FIX it if they weren't locked, but they're all locked. This is insane.
