Question [SOLVED] Online pdf fill

[Phill Trott]

Is it possible to fill out an online pdf, using the keypad, on galaxy tab s7 android 13?
Not talking about downloading the form first, or filling out with the s-pen.
The form is a write on pdf, which I can fill out on my mac, using chrome browser, can't get it to work that way on the S7, or my phone

This would only work if you have a browser that supports a PDF viewer plug in (the stock browser or Chrome don't have one). Unlike on a PC, the browser plug-in and cache (your computer IS downloading the form, albeit temporarily, by the way) work differently and you have to explicitly download/edit the form on device.

Thats unfortunate, but thanks for the information.
Unfortunately I don't have the option of downloading and type filling the form, because it will not render correctly on any pdf reader/wrtier that I have tried, including Adobe. The form fields show jumbled up over top of each other. This is the form in question.

I grabbed your link and opened it in Crome on my device. Chrome rendered the PDF fine but as expected I was not able to find an editing tool. From the PDF display, I touched the 3 dots in the upper right hand corner and one of the selections was Open With, I used that to open the PDF in one of my PDF reader apps, in this XODO, which would then allow me to edit the doc. I tried sending it to Google Drive and opening it there but it rendered without being editable.

Firefox allows me to fill in online using the keypad.
