Okay, I've done some digging to find out how to create fillable PDF 
forms in LO. I found the below  website that explains it somewhat.

https://www.maketecheasier.com/create-a-pdf-with-fillable-forms-in-libreoffice/

I've tried it and it works fairly well. I'm still learning some of the 
nuances. I'll test it on various systems and I may use it for my current 
exam. I like the idea of using PDF instead of .DOC, and I think it may 
even be nicer for my students.

I love learning new things that LO can do that I had never thought possible.
