Forms
Grand Chapter Week forms are available on a separate page. Click on the link to go to that page.
Electronic Forms Instructions
These are basic instructions regarding the electronic forms we produce.
Most of the forms are in the Adobe PDF format and require Adobe Reader (Acrobat) version 5 or later to open. It is recommended that you install the latest version of Adobe Reader on your computer that will work with your Operating System. You can download many different versions of Adobe Reader from http://www.adobe.com. If you have an old computer and cannot install a version of Adobe Reader that will open our forms, please let us know and we will see if we can help.
If you have Adobe Reader version 7 or later, you can save — and thus email — any of the forms that are in the section labled “emailable”. You can also email any completed Acrobat forms, if you have a full (purchased) version of Adobe Acrobat.
Printing forms
When printing forms that are more that one page, please print the forms back to back — it saves paper and staples. If both the front and back are both in either portrait or landscape layout, please make sure that the top of both pages remains at the top when the page is flipped horizontally. If the front and back are different — one portrait and one landscape — please make sure that, when you flip the page by grasping the bottom with your left hand and flipping it over by causing the bottom of the page to end up on the left-hand side, the top of both pages stays on the top.
Emailing forms
The Monthly Report, Annual Officer Report, Consolidated Officer Report, Address Change, and Officer Change forms should be emailed to membership@oescal.org.
Problems
If you have any problems with the forms, if you spot an error on a form or in a field, or if you have any questions, please feel free to contact this office. You can email James directly at supply@oescal.org.
