Paper forms
Although we've introduced online forms, we know that some participants would prefer our traditional paper form. Using the paper form also allows you to use a personal or company check or a money order. Sorry, we do not accept faxed or e-mailed paper forms.
All three PDFs are interactive, allowing you enter your information on screen and printing out the finished form. More details on the form are available below.
See the membership page on copydesk.org for full details and guidelines for full and associate members. If you are becoming a member, you must include a membership form along with your registration.
I've missed the mail-in deadline
You can still register for the conference after the mail-in deadline. We still would like you to download the form, but please bring it to the conference. We'll register you on the spot. Registration opens at 8 a.m. on Thursday, April 15, at the registration area in the Regency foyer, 2nd floor mezzanine.
How to use fill-in PDF documents
ACES fill-in PDF forms use the features provided with Adobe Acrobat products. You can enter your information from within the document on-screen instead of printing and filling out the document by hand.
Software requirements
To view, complete and print our fill-in PDF forms you'll need the freely available Adobe Reader software installed on your computer. Version 5 or later of Adobe Reader is required.
Opening the form
Your Web browser may be configured with an Adobe Reader plug-in to automatically open the file within your browser's window upon download. To download the file directly to disk, right-click on the form's link then select "Save Target/Link As..." from the menu. Use Adobe Reader to open the file.
Fill-in forms with the ability to save locally will generate a dialog box when opened with Adobe Reader. If you are using Adobe Reader 6.05 or later, the dialog box will indicate that document rights have been applied to the PDF file and you can save the completed fill-in form. If you are using a version of Adobe Reader prior to Version 5, the dialog box will indicate that some features of the document will not operate and you will be prompted to obtain a newer version of Adobe Reader.
Completing the form
When positioning the cursor on a fill-in area or element, the cursor will change appearance. The I-beam pointer allows you to type text. The hand pointer allows you to select a check box or radio button.
Enter the appropriate data in each box or field. To move from one field to the next, press the Tab key. You can also use your cursor to move from field to field. Place your cursor in the field you want to fill in, then left-click.
Some fields limit the maximum number of characters you can enter and may automatically advance to the next field.
For additional help with fill-in forms, see the Adobe Reader's online help information.
