Default How do I complete the attached

Please forgive my ignorance but I am attempting to complete an application form - and it mainly consists of Text Boxes that have radio buttons in them.


I have spent considerably time trying to put my mark on just one of the boxes.

The attached is a sample. I would be very grateful if someone could give me the correct simple method to get a Black Mark in one of the boxes please. I do not want to have to print the document and then use a pen in the 21st Century.

Many thanks in advance for your assistance.

Well, then write to the people who made the form and tell them you would like to fill it in on your computer rather than by hand.

It is not designed for computer filling in!

You could convert each of the current choices with fields, but it would be a lot of work and should really be done by the people who want the information.

Or, if you have Adobe Acrobat (not reader) you could save as a pdf file and tell Acrobat to convert it to a form. The results would be mixed.

What the document attached to your post actually contains is images of ActiveX radio buttons and their captions.

I can't imagine why anyone would distribute a form like that - unless it was an afterthought when they found out ActiveX controls aren't supported on Macs. Are you sure your attachment is 'as-distributed' and that you haven't saved it? Since you're using a Mac, I suspect what's actually happened is that the ActiveX controls have been converted to images.

As for asking questions about religion on an application form, I'd have thought that was a breach of privacy in many jurisdictions - unless it's for employment in a religious context.
