ttbp500015 Smart Form User Guide
A Smart Form:
• Is an interactive form with built-in logic and automation features that simplify form completion
• Performs most mathematical computations in order to reduce errors
• Recognizes certain common errors and attempts to prevent you from making those errors
• Prevents printing when a mandatory field is incomplete
• Allows you to print a blank version of the form
• Checks for errors in most fields; when errors are recognized, a popup window will provide instructions for
corrections.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
Our Smart Forms function best when using these minimum standards:
PC Users
Mac Users
Mobile Users
This form, in general, does not work on the I-Pad or I-Pod or I-Phone (We did not test the form on other
mobile devices). TTB does not recommend or promote the use of any specific mobile device apps, and we do
not recommend that you purchase any specifically for use with our smart forms. Apps are not guaranteed to
perform as claimed.
Research using public forums and blogs suggest that if you previously purchased apps such as PDF Expert or
Acrobat Reader Pro, you may experience success completing interactive fillable PDF forms. TTB has no
knowledge as to the validity of these claims.
If you want to complete this smart form on a mobile device using the free Adobe Acrobat reader app, we
suggest you download the regular version of this form (The regular form number does not include the
extension ‘sm’).

Chrome Users
The Google Chrome browser has a built-in Chrome PDF Viewer. If you use Chrome as your browser, you will
need to take one of two actions when using a TTB smart form:
1. Download the smart form to your computer and open it directly using your Adobe Acrobat software.
2. Disable the Chrome PDF Viewer so that the form opens in your Adobe Acrobat software.
a. Open a second browser tab and type in, “about:plugins” to see all your Chrome plug-ins.
b. Look for the Chrome PDF Viewer and click the Disable link below it:
c. After the Chrome PDF Viewer is disabled, feel free to download the TTB smart form – it should now
open in your Adobe Acrobat software and work perfectly.
