Downloaded a pdf grant application, opened with Acrobat DC, filled out many form boxes, saved and exited Acrobat. Now I can't type in the boxes. I can't modify the answers I've already typed. Thanks for any help.

Hi Patrickd,

Have you signed the form too? If yes, then you wouldn't be able to edit the form further. Signing is the final process, once done it locks the form and make it secure.

You need to download it again to make further changes.

Thanks,
