For D8A

Is there anywhere where you can obtain a copy of this form (and the other divorce forms) that you can fill out on a pc and then save onto the pc with the fields filled out? The copy available here and on the government site will not allow me to fill out the fields and save the final document with the fields filled in (it will only save the blank template to fill out and then print). This means that I have to get it all right first time and I was hoping to do this collaboratively with my lawyer so that I fill out the bits that I can fill out and email to my lawyer so that I save the costs of her doing all the bits that I can do. It would be so much easier to do this by pc rather than by hand and having to send by snail mail. Any suggestions?

It can be done but as far as I know it''s not free, the software is out there though, tbh your just going to have to do it by hand if the fields are not enough.

Do you know what the software is? It''s a PDF template - maybe something that Adobe would provide? Or are you thinking of something else? I am thinking that it would save me money and time to fill the form out on the computer and email to my solicitor rather than have her do it.

I think Charles had some link or code that helped, does anyone remember was it Charles or Jonathan, ill try and find it.

free service to convert PDF to Word: www.pdftoword.com/

I printed mine, cancelled and then completed by hand and re-typed it printed, didn''t submit but scanned it and sent it to my sols.

Long winded but worked, mind you sols thane had to type it for submission so I supose costed similar amount, I would say often it is best that sols do this bit, save money on not needlessly contacting sols for other related issues (like I use to at first, got the first bill and that soon stopped)

I''ve just tried this site www.pdftoword.com/

I used a document I had converted from Word to pdf and it has converted back to Word more or less accurately. Not bad since it included tables and graphs, but the header was corrupted.
