PDF-Forms is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com/ __________________________________________________________________
There are tools which can help you to accomplish this.
If your overall workflow is paper-based, you would get quite a good deal out of Cardiff's Teleform product line, because it has a good range of tools for the data processing. Considering the PDF part, the resulting forms have a bit a problem because Teleform (and, even more so, the "office" product, LiquidOffice) creates a complete document object model within their forms, using an extensive amount of Acrobat JavaScript.
If it is a tool for getting your forms fillable, but you don't need the extensive tool range from Teleform, you should definitely look at Amgraf's OneForm plus (http://www.amgraf.com), which does have an option to semi-automatically create fillable forms, and does take many document formats as input.
On the low-end side, they say that even Omniform has some capabilities.
Hope, this can help.

I have a large number of PDF forms that are not interactive. The company I work for usually just prints the form, and fills it out by hand.
Is there any tool I can use that will automatically recognize portions of the pdf file where form fields Should be?
Basically, I need something that will scan the document, recognize the portions of the document where interactive form fields will go (i.e. boxes, lines, radio buttons etc...) and make them interactive.
I am desparate to find this software if it exists. I have been searching the web for over a week now with no luck.
