In this step-by-step tutorial, learn how to create a fillable PDF form for free using LibreOffice (previously known as OpenOffice). LibreOffice is free and open source software that allows you to create forms and export as a PDF form. When you distribute your form, others can fill out your form easily. Once they complete your form, they can print or save their responses in PDF format. You can create a form using things like check boxes, option buttons, text boxes, and drop-down lists.

The video on creating a fillable form in LibreOffice is helpful but I have more questions. I would like to explain what I am trying to do and get assistance in doing so. How do I proceed? Is there a forum or an email account that I can contact?
