In the past, when all else has failed, I've been able to import a pdf
file into GIMP. Then create a text box at each place in the form
needing to be filled in - even check boxes - then print the form,
choosing pdf file as the format instead of paper. GIMP is a very
powerful (read steep learning curve) program that I use very
infrequently, so it is a bit time consuming to get each check box in
the right place with the right size font but by careful saving in gimps
format after each change it has worked.

A lot of work but when nothing else is available, it has done the job.
