9. Easy as pie...if the form is already on your computer/email.

I do it all the time.

In FireFox and in Opera browsers you hit "file" >"print"> "print to file" and window opens allowing you to print the page as a pdf format.
Also can do same in your email client..I can do it in thunderbird, and in Opera email.

I save a LOT of stuff I find online as pdf copies, they open right up into Adobe but can also open into my document reader.

Was that your question? I was not clear where the form was that you had to convert.
