Do legal forms need to be filled out in black ink

I agree with the prior answer -- but it's always important to check with the rules of court in which certain documents may be filed. More and more, it seems to be the vogue for courts to develop very detailed local rules that micromanage how lawyers practice in their courts, and address such things as the size and types of fonts that can be used, etc.

Maybe black ink photocopies better? There is no legally required color of ink.
