Print data from form only (1099)

Recommended Posts

Is there a way to print the data from a form only?  I have a 1099 I need to print but it has to be on the red form supplied by the IRS.  I just want to print the data in the format its in but without the background.  Help?

Maybe you've tried this already, but if you've got a form data file (Forms tab, Export button), you can use that to import the data to the IRS form (assuming the field names are the same).  To import, open up the form, go to the Forms tab, and click the Import button.

 

Sorry if this isn't what you're looking for or it doesn't work.

The IRS form is a printed red sheet (not a PDF) that has to be used.  I cannot PRINT the form itself.  I have to use the paper form supplied by the IRS.

Maybe the best way to go forward here is to scan in that paper, turn it into a PDF, fill in the fields, then whiteout everything except the data you filled in.

Then you've got the form with just the data, and everything should line up perfectly and you can print the info onto the real paper form.

that worked perfectly.  wish I had known about "whiteout" yesterday.  I ended up doing it by hand as the deadline was Feb 28.  Thanks though!  Ill know for the future!
