How Do I Remove The Watermark In Order To Print Back Tax Forms Using Adobe

I am using an old Turbo Tax Home & Business application, but since it is for the 2014 Tax Year I can't update the software installation, because Turbo Tax no longer supports software older than 3 year old. 

 

I can install the software, but all my forms have a Watermark on them "Do Not File. etc."   The forms are ready to print, but I can't find a way to remove this watermark.  Can someone explain how to do this using Adobe or another .pdf viewer/editor?

If you don't mind paying more you could try the TaxPrinter service to convert the .tax2014  file to pdf at
https://www.taxprinter.com

They are not connected to TurboTax.

If the forms have the "Do Not File" watermark, it means that you have a preliminary version of the software that does not have the updates needed for a correct tax return. The calculations may not be correct, and the tax return might not match what you actually filed.


You might be able to remove the watermarks with a PDF editing program, but that will not make the printed tax return correct or accurate.
