Start by recording a screencast in Storyline of how to fill out the interactive PDF. Then insert that screen recording not as a video but as Try Mode Step-by-Step Slides. That breaks up the video into different slides for each action you took in your screen recording. It also adds in interactions and feedback. The final user experience then ends up feeling a lot like the real software experience, and it's much faster than building the interactions in Storyline from scratch with screenshots. Here's some more information on how it works.
