This post will show you how to convert a PDF document to a fillable form in LibreOffice. A PDF can be used as a file to create a form with blank fields like text areas.

Getting to Design View The first thing you need is to open LibreOffice Base; when you do, you’ll be prompted to either create a new database or open an existing database.

Open a new OpenOffice Writer document and click "View." Click "Toolbars" followed by "Form controls" to reveal the Form Controls toolbar. This toolbar contains controls you'll use to create your form.
