   I have the form as a PDF file. I am not creating it. I did not
   understand how I can fill the blanks in it using hyperref.sty. Is
   this what you meant?
   
No, I thought you want to create a PDF form with LaTeX, in that case
hyperref helps.  Filling the form is just like filling it in a html
form and form functionality is exactly like that provided by the
http protocol.  LaTeX's job ends with creating a form.  I guess, the
form needs to be in a web browser to fill in with data.

By the way, can't you open the pdf form in Acrobat and enter data?
