How do I fill out a PDF if it’s not fillable by default? Also, how do I sign it electronically?

There are a million sites talking about how to create a fillable form. I want to take forms that the creator didn’t choose to make fillable and be able to fill them in so I don’t have to print, fill it out by my sloppy handwriting, sign it, scan it, then deliver the thing to them. What a waste of time! I imagine we would need a program to open it and convert it so I can edit it, then save it as a PDF. To be clear, I don’t want to alter the original text! I just want to fill it in by my computer instead of by hand so I can then email it to them immediately.

Fill out PDF: All You Need to Know

I don’t mind if they can’t read it. What if they already have an email account and can send the form as the message attachments? Can you imagine the amount of mail, fax, fax machine, and mailing service, and postage I would have to waste by manually converting files? You know they are lazy at heart. So they send me a bunch of stuff, and I have to go through it and do it? Now I have to read and interpret it so that I can deliver it. Then I have to take it to their computers, and have them sign it and fax in the form before I deliver it to them. And this is all before I even start printing and mailing copies. If they can’t read it, I don’t have to do anything to them to do their paperwork and file things. I can put.
