Just refer to the sheet in English and on the sheet, refer to the section of the form (by number). You've already been given the "label" suggestion for things like names that are too long.

LeeFisher3 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 You might try installing the asian fonts for Adobe to see if it will allow this.http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/acrrasianfontpack.html Link to comment

Dan R Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Ok Lee when I posted the characters changed. Can you explain that? Link to comment
pkfops Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I just did a quick test and it looks OK. I downloaded the Chinese Simplified. Link to comment
david_dawei Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Tried to download, but had version 6.0 and was told to upgrade to 7.0 before installing languages... Install 7.0, then install chinese simplified.. then worked ok. Also noticed that now the pinyin input method also works fine... Link to comment

warpedbored Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 I tried it myself and after downloading the asian fonts I could type in pinyin but not cut and paste Chinese Characters. Perhaps if your sweet heart wrote it out for you in pinyin you could but the easiest and probably the bestest way would be to cut and paste it on a word document and put in "see continuation" on line 16. On the word document put "continuation for line 16" then the info. Link to comment
LeeFisher3 Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Ok Lee when I posted the characters changed. Can you explain that?187074[/snapback]Yep, your page encoding didn't think it was a Chinese page. Change it manually and it looks fine to me. Link to comment

I was not able to change the font size. Link to comment

I was still not able to paste anything on that PDF form. I also tried translating my SO's name and address by using Babelfish. It came out "weird!" Link to comment
