Entry Form

 Avoid the queues - come prepared!

 
Spend less time filling in forms - more time enjoying the show

Entry forms are, of course, available on the Saturday at the Expo. However, why not avoid the queues and save time by completing entry forms for your competition entries before you head off to the show? This is especially recommended if you wish to include long lists of modifications on your forms.

 

Do you prefer to write or type?

You may choose to either print blank forms and then fill them in by hand (if you really just can't type) or fill them in on your computer before printing, taking advantage of the interactive, auto-fill properties of the form to save time.

 

Getting the form

The file is in Adobe PDF format - a convenient and widely used method of sharing documents between computers. You will require an Adobe PDF reader in order to view, fill-in and print the form. If you need it, get Adobe Reader here for free.


 

 Filling out the interactive form

 
Once the form has opened on your computer you may print as many blank copies as you wish and then fill them out by hand. Before you resort to this, however, consider using the following method.

With the form open on your computer, move the mouse pointer over the 'Name' field near the top of the form and when it changes to a text cursor, click in the box and type your name. Press the 'TAB' key on your keyboard to then move to the next field, and so on.

Please note - Some of the interactive functions of the form may not work as described in older Adobe software. The form is still quite usable although moving between fields with the TAB key may be unpredictable (use your mouse instead), information entered into Part A will not be automatically duplicated in Part B (you will have to do a little more typing, or copy and paste) and you may have to print from the application's tool bar or menu instead using the 'Print' button on the bottom of the form.

For the 'Competition category' field, click on the small arrow at the right of the field and select the relevant category from the drop-down list that opens. You may wish to read through the competition information page for assistance in determining the correct category for your model. If you are still unsure then leave it blank and ask at the Expo.

After entering the scale you will need to provide a name for your entry in the 'Entry title' field. This name should identify the model and could be something like; 'Supermarine Spitfire Mk.8 of the RAAF', 'Black 1967 Corvette', or 'Star Wars X-Wing fighter'.

Once you have completed Part A of the form, move down to Part B. You will notice that any information already provided by you in Part A will automatically appear in Part B. Here you may wish to detail any modifications that you made to the standard kit for consideration by the judges (Not appropriate for any of the 'Out-of-the-box/enhanced' categories).

When ready, click on the 'Print' button at the bottom of the form to print your finished entry form. If you have more models to enter just make any necessary changes to the information in Part B (Part A will be updated automatically) and then print another. Repeat as necessary.
