ScribeWare can be used to fill in the following form element types:
Text fields - places were you can enter arbitrary text. Examples include "Name", "Address", "Date", etc.
Check boxes - they can either appear as a check mark or "x", and are either checked or unchecked
Each element in a form has an internal Database field name that is used to reference it.
Important! Database Field Names are not visible using a normal PDF viewer. You must use a specialized tool to see these.
