Announcement Regarding Fillable PDF Forms on the Tax Products DVD

IRS is pleased to announce a significant enhancement to all tax forms provided in a fillable PDF format.

• Fillable PDF forms have been enhanced with "document rights" which allow users of the form to SAVE the completed form with the user's data to a local storage device (e.g. hard drive) with the freely-distributed version of Adobe Reader (formerly Acrobat Reader) software. A current release of Adobe Reader software is included on the Tax Products DVD or may be obtained from the Adobe web site.
