Hi Desiree,
While you can import an existing PDF into LC Designer, it can limit some of the features.
I'll be honest, unless the form is very complex I will often recreate the form from scratch in LC Designer. Another option is to export the existing form in Acrobat to image files (JPEG) and then use these as a background to the page in LC Designer. Again this really only works for forms that are one or two pages, otherwise the form file increases too much.
The last option would be to stay in Acrobat and not import the form into LC Designer. In Acrobat you can "add fields" to a form. Acrobat will take a first stab at it by looking at the lines on the form and suggest objects. You can then amend these to suite your requirements.
If you stick with the form at the moment, then you are going to have to sort out the vertical (and horizontal) alignment, so that tabbing will work more reliably.
Hope that helps,
Niall
