If you cannot fill it out in Adobe Reader, it may let you copy/paste it into Word. However, sometimes even that isn't possible depending on the protection applied to the PDF when it was created.
If so, a workaround is to make screen captures of each page, set Word to a new blank document with the minimum margins your printer accepts, then paste a page at a time into Word. Save the document - which will be large because it is all graphics.
Now create floating Text Boxes formatted with no borders and cell padding over each box you need to fill in. Once you create and format one text box, you can hold down the Control key and copy it to other locations on the page with just a little resizing needed. When you have finished, you can use the COMPRESS utility to minimise the size of the graphics and save it again and password protect it. Now email it as an attachment.
If you have Word 2007, you can save it as a PDF and email that as an attachment which is a better solution.

I am trying to transfer an online application from Adobe to MS Word so I can
fill it out and send it back to an employer via email. It lets me open the
file in MS Word but I can't read it, like computer language. How can I make
it readable and fill it out?
