Creating a Fillable PDF Directly From Access

I administer an Access DB -- MS Access Front End/Azure SQL Server Back End

The client has made a request for a button on one of the forms that creates a PDF, with certain information populated from our database...but other information, which does not exist in our db, to be left blank, but fillable -- so that when they open the PDF, they can enter this information directly in the PDF (similar to say a fillable W4 PDF form you'll find on the IRS website).

Does anyone know how I might go about creating something like this, or where I might start researching. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance!
 

Excel Facts

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
And another without SendKeys
You do need a full version of Acrobat though I believe?
