Unable to fill government PDF (fw4.pdf) using Adobe Embed API

Hello,

We are trying to use Adobe Embed API to allow our clients to fillout PDFs.  We are able to fillout some PDFs, but not Government PDFs (W-2, W-4, I-9, etc.). The Government PDFs are displayable, just not fillable. If we open the Government PDFs in a browser or Adobe Acrobar Reader, then we are able to fill them out.

 

Can Adobe Embed API be used for filling out Government PDFs?

 

Is there something else that we need to do to enable filling them out?

 

Thank you,

-Ken B.

Governments make a lot of PDFs. Sometimes the same form is available in different versions. So please don't just tell use the form number and make us search! Please give a specific URL of a problem form so that people who want to can be sure they are trying the same form as you.
