The full versions of Acrobat (Standard & Pro) and NitroFactory Pro have the complete feature set of Reader plus additional features. pdf, not create them or save fill-in information on them. Robin, if you have Acrobat or NitroFactory Pro, you don't need Reader. If so, my question would be: When I create forms with NitroPro, can I then open them in a separate (free) Nitro Reader (if any) and save them as fillable forms? If so, that would be an advantage over Adobe Acrobat & Adobe Reader. This is the reason, by the way, M$ has kept its file formats proprietary-if only M$ programs can open and save their programs, you can't get competing alternatives.ĭoes Nitro have a separate Reader? I can't find any information about that on the web site. The data is saved the same way, you can use any program you want as long as it can open and save in the proper file format. I'm also wondering about compatibility with other programs. About the only drawback is that NitroPDF doesn't integrate to TimeMatters, but for $200 a copy cheaper vis a vis Acrobat Standard, I can live with that. I'll look at it more closely and share my thoughts. I tried NitroPDF and I agree, it looks like a great, cheaper substitute for Adobe Acrobat Standard, especially if it does Bates numbering. Also, it has the added benefit of being able to do the other pdf stuff you need to do in addition to Judicial Council forms. I think getting Acrobat or NitroPDF is an easier and cheaper way to do JC forms rather than paying for Legal Solutions Plus every 6 months. If you don't clear the "remember filled-in information" then too much of it gets remembered and gets in the way. I like to clear it and then enter in a bunch of forms with this information turned-on. They've been so far at least a year.Īs you noted, with Adobe Acrobat Reader, you can fill in the forms but can's save the filled-in information.Īs for remembering previously filled-in information, Jan, it's a double-edged feature. Click on the "Forms" link and go from there. There's a narrow menu strip at the top of the home page. I don't think the fillable forms can be saved on your computer, but apparently they do "remember" information you've typed into various fields on the forms, which allows you to choose from a drop-down list or use an "autocomplete" type of feature to fill in a field. (Not sure how many forms, or which ones, remain un-fillable at this point.) You do have to have Acrobat **Reader** (version 5 or higher) on your computer in order to fill in the forms this client has Acrobat 6, and the forms loaded fairly quickly, though he has a relatively slow Internet connection.

I was very surprised to find, when I was working for a sole practitioner client yesterday, that the California courts web site now has a large number of fillable court forms (the Judicial Council forms) - when I last taught at UCLA Extension about a year and a half ago, the forms were available for download but were not fillable.
