Hi fyelicie,

There are two options-
1. If the form has fillable form fields on it you should just be able to type information into the fields. Click in the area you want to type into and if the cursor changes to an I-beam there is a field there, just type in it. Adding form fields can only be done with Acrobat Professional.
2. If the form does not have form fields you can use the Typewriter tool ( located under the Tools menu). It is a bit clunky but if you are trying to fill out a form once and want the legibility of a typewriter, it works fine.

Hope that helps,

Dimitri
