Alternate Ways to Start Fillable Forms
Fillable forms are integrated throughout the program and not limited within the Forms Library. Following are ways you can start a fillable form outside of the Forms Library:
-
If a fillable form is assigned to an event or if a fillable form is linked to a What code, you can right-click the event within an event list and select Form generation > Do the form.
-
If a fillable form is assigned to an event or if a fillable form is linked to a What code, you can open the event in the Event window and click Form > Do the form.
-
After you work with a fillable form, it is remembered for quick access later. At the Name or Matter window, click the Printer button and a menu appears with most recently used fillable forms at the bottom. Just click one to do it again for the current name or matter.
