Default can I fill PDF forms in Word or other software?

Hello,
I've got a PDF form that is not the type with entry fields.
Instead of putting my handwriting on this, does anyone know of a way to fill
it out using my computer?
1. Can I somehow put a PDF as a background image in a Word doc so that I can
type on top of it?
2. Had someone OCR it for me, but it's too far from the original and is
cumbersome.
3. Briefly tried doing it in Illustrator by opening the PDF and typing on
top of it, but it is quite difficult to place the text and space it so that
the form gets filled on the right lines, particularly where there are
multiple line answers.
4. Is there another piece of software that can accomplish this unique task?

Thanks for your help,
hj.
