Hi :)
Ooops, i was a bit unclear! I am wondering if there is an Open alternative to
the pdf format itself. When i try to "Print to file" i have a choice of ".ps"
or ".pdf" but i am not sure if ps is editable ...
Regards from
Tom :)
That would be DjVu (pronounced like déjà vu):

To answer Amine's initial question, in such cases I question the need to
use Acrobat forms in the first place, then I'd suggest to use Acrobat
Reader for Linux directly - unless I am missing something that should
definitely work. Of course this doesn't solve the non-free parts of PDF
(such as recent extensions and implementations, last time I checked).
Cheers,
Fabian

For Linux, you use your package managers to look for PDF software.
There are a bunch of packages that do PDF editing and such that is
not part of the normal/default document reader.
For printing documents as PDFs, I used "doPDF" PDF printer for Windows
and CUPS-PDF for Ubuntu.
The trouble with Adobe's PDF system is like all their other packages.
They are bloating their systems to where it is too much inside the file
format to be "simple" and easy to implement for non-Adobe software
companies, like LO. Their installs are almost 1 gig or more for each
package.
Microsoft is the same way. 95% of Word's abilities are not used by
99% of its users, but to give users those extras caused Word and
the other parts of their office suite to make it to hard to use for the
average
user. Same with Adobe's newest PDF options.
