Couple caveats for maximum functionality with this form:
Open and complete with Adobe Acrobat (not Edge)
Also have Outlook email already open
Once form is complete, click the PURPLE “Email Form” box in the top LEFT corner. Form will attach to a new email addressed to the PSU organizational mailbox.
