Hi everyone.



So there is this contract that has gray field boxes. I'm supposed to fill in the boxes in Word, print it, sign it by hand, scan it and then email it.

I have filled in the forms, no problem there, but here's the thing. When I preview the document for printing, the gray field boxes show up too. I can't print it like that. I need the gray field boxes to disappear but I can't get them to disappear since the document has restricted editing and it's asking for a password to enable editing. The toolbar and everything is grayed out. I cannot change/edit anything other than the inside of the field boxes. Selecting the field boxes and trying to delete them doesn't work either.

Can I get rid of these field boxes, gray shading stuff or whatever they are without the password? I can't ask the company for the password. Even if I do, I highly doubt they'll give it to me since this is a binding contract. They can't risk someone changing something in the articles.

I have attached a screenshot to help you get an idea of what I'm talking about.

Thanks in advance.
