The default toolbars - Quick Tools and Common Tools - contain commonly used tools and commands for working with PDFs.
Most available tools are included in the Tools pane at the right side of the window. You can add more tools needed for electronic forms completion to the toolbars for easy access.
Instructions for e-filing call for you to have access to (1) Import and Export Data and (2) Insert Page from another file and require both the Forms and Pages toolbars to appear in the Tools panel on the right side of the window. If these options do not appear, you can add them by following the instructions below.
