Can't type in the information on Mendards Rebate Forms... (It works with Microsoft Edge)

When going to the Menards.com Rebate Center, entering the numbers, and clicking "Print and View Rebates," we are supposed to be able to key in our information: name, address, email... When trying to do this with Firefox, it would not let me key in the information, so I had to open Microsoft Edge, which did allow me to do this. I would appreciate it if this could be fixed in Firefox, because I prefer to use Firefox and would rather not have to open a different browser to complete such tasks.

Hi Michelle,

I don't think that it will be possible in Firefox PDF reader in a predictable future. The solution here is to go to Options -> Applications and in the Portable Document Format (PDF) content type you have to select Use Adobe Reader.

Thank you! That was helpful!

After reading your response, I went back to the page that would not let me type into the document. When I reloaded the page, a bar appeared at the top saying, "This PDF has forms, the filling of forms is not supported." However, there was a button at the right on that bar that says, "Open with different viewer," which worked.

Again, Thank you.
