I found your suggestion to use fillable PDF forms intriguing and 
certainly something I will consider in future, more appropriate, 
situations. I also found Jonathon's legal concerns to be very helpful. I 
want to make sure that the resources I create are fully accessible, and 
I will have to weigh the effort it takes to create accessible documents 
in whatever file format I use. I didn't find his pronouncements to be 
loud or arrogant, but rather to contain useful information that has led 
me to other useful information, just as I found the same with your 
original suggestion.
