Create PDF forms and documents for free

Use Openoffice (http://download.openoffice.org/2.2.1/index.html) to create a document, adding any form fields you need then export as PDF.

Note: form fields in PDF forms shouldn't contain any underscore (_) characters, or else the values aren't sent to the processing webserver. Or at least that is the case with PDF forms created via Openoffice - so avoid anything other than normal letters and numbers in form field names

Table of contents can be created on OpenOffice, as well as specifying the default opening mode of PDF files.
