You can create easy-to-use fields in Adobe Acrobat that will allow your users to enter information in your documents. To aid your users in differentiating one field from another, you can create tool tips that help emphasize the field's name. These tool tips create a small pop-up whenever the user mouses over the field. The pop-up can contain the name of the field and whatever additional information you think would be beneficial.
