Forms

Instructions for Adobe Acrobat

These forms are  in Adobe PDF format and can be filled out and printed online if you have the Adobe Acrobat Reader which is supplied free by USC at http://software.usc.edu

You will normally need the Acrobat Software (not just the Reader) to save the file.  However, because of the wide variety of platforms in use at USC, you should consult with your technical support staff if you have problems saving the form.

If you are filling out the Statement of Outside Interests, some additional instructions are in the box below.

When the form comes up on your screen, select the Hand Tool.

When you place the Hand Tool in a field to be filled in with text, it becomes a bar. Click once and begin entering data.

When you place the Hand Tool in a field that requires a check mark, it becomes a pointing index finger. Click to insert an check mark in the field.

Note that some of these fields (e.g. Yes/No) only permit one entry so, e.g., clicking Yes and then clicking No results in Yes being unchecked and No being checked.

Once the form is completed, you can print it using either the Acrobat Reader or your browser's Print command.

 Statement of Outside Interests: Entered data will be italicized.  If the field title is short, the cursor will turn to a 
 bar to the right of the colon (:).  Otherwise, go to the beginning of the next line.  Because the Acrobat format 
 does not behave like a word processor, you can overflow some of these fields, and they will not expand to 

 accommodate the excess data.  If this happens, please attach additional sheets as the intent is not to limit data 
 in any field.
