OK, let's go over this again.
I downloaded Schedule M1 from the IRS.  It is for a homework assignment. 
  I would like to type in the numbers, and email it to my prof.  He says 
it can be done.
I tried using Preview but it won't save my numbers.
I tried saving using Adobe's reader with the same result.  I tried using 
the PDF function and it barked at me saying I had to use FILE then SAVE 
which once again blows away my numbers.
