Is there a such a thing? Trying to do daughter's income tax offline and of
course, everything is in PDF. Thanks in advance and Happy Easter.

Foxit Reader has a "Typewriter" feature that does this. The free version
does not allow you to save the filled-in document, but you can print it.
I use it often.

Just a thought I had.
Maybe you can install a postscript print driver and
print the "typewriter" changed form from Foxit PDF Reader
to a postscript file and then convert the postscript file to a
PDF file with Ghostscript.

Most PDF IRS tax forms (if not all) have "permissions" that allow people
to save the form data. You will need either Adobe Reader version 6 or 7
to do this.

But there is a freeware that will you to save the data in most other
forms: Fy Tek PDF File Save.

I just used paperless printer. It printed the information that foxit
left on the PDF file.

of course you can.

* use foxit to edit your file.

* and use the PDFCreater to print a pdf file again.

I thought they are blocking this strategy now.

By the way, a long way around the problem of a flat form is here:
