I have about 50% luck with the js based pdf viewers just letting me edit pdfs now... I think it comes down to did the pdf creator actually put type areas in the form or did they expect you to have acrobat and just create new text boxes in the form areas. Oddly the IRS forms were really good with that this year. I agree the dark patterns around PDFs and everyone putting a shareware version of a ope source program out is the worst. Also a large % of the time open office works but hey that takes like 20 minutes to install. The only thing I use acrobat for is it actually is quite solid for printing and doesn't seem to charge you for that.
