Instructions for Downloading and Filling Out pdf Forms

To ensure the proper steps for downloading and filling out a pdf form from the Employee Dashboard or an attached form in an e-mail, please follow these instructions. The instructions are written using the Firefox browser for downloading and Adobe Reader for filling out the form.

To download the form to your computer, “right click” on the file and select “Save Link As…” There are several ways to perform a “right click” but one of the simplest ways is to hold down the “control” key on the keyboard (make sure your mouse is positioned over the file) and click on the trackpad or mouse. Choose a location to save your file.

Locate the file and double click on it to open. If Adobe Reader does not appear in the upper left corner of your monitor, close the application. Again, locate the file. Hover your mouse over the file, right click on the file and a list of options appears. From the list choose “Open With,” then choose Adobe Reader from the list.

Forms must be completed using Adobe Reader. Do not attempt to fill out the form with Preview or any other application. If Preview or another application opens, close the file and open it with Adobe Reader.
