How to type information in a scanned word document

[Guest]

I scanned a form into word but cannot type information on the form

Your form is a picture, therefore you cannot fill in the blanks. You may try
to use text boxes and position them 'in front of' the scanned picture.

That's because what you have is a picture, not a document.

One approach would be to place textboxes into the document in the locations
where you want to be able to fill-in text.

Another approach would be to use the form as a watermark so that it's in the
header or footer layer.
