OK, I'll bite... :)
I use gimp to convert the pdf pages to png(s).
I create a libreoffice document, set the margins to 0,0,0,0 (printer will complaint), create a 1-column-1-row table on every page and set each graphic page as the background of each table.
Now I can type over the forms, print it, export it as pdf (original pages are not text anymore) and even 'sign it' by importing my scanned signature.
Have done it lottsa times, works every time... :)

cool... I just found out you can do it in libreoffice.
sudo apt-get install openoffice.org-pdfimport
don't worry, it will change to libre office.

Ah, is it asking for an encrypted sig from an online provider?

thanks lisa.... any idea how to upload a signature to it? I tried
scaningone then uploading it to gimp and masking the signature and deleting
what surrounds it but how do I paste it into the PDF. What pastes in is
just a little squiggle. like it is zoomed in on the y coordinate but not
the x.

I frequently get forms I need to fill out in PDFs. I hat printing
them to fill them out and then needing to scan to email the form to the
person that needs the said form. Is there like a program or website I can
open a pdf in that will allow me to fill it out on my computer?

Plugins for Firefox can provide pdf form editing.
