This form is very complicated with lots of graphics and lines.

The button to the left of the text causes the problem. This field is named fill_4 although it should be named Huge using the text to the left of the field. The automatic field names aren’t always correct. Click a field on the page to highlight it, and Acrobat also highlights the field’s name in the list. Click anywhere on the page to deselect the field-now the field shows a solid black frame and the field highlight disappears in the Fields tab, too.Īcrobat copies the text on the page to the left of the field and uses that text for the field’s name.

The selected field shows a blue frame on the page. Click the name of a field in the list to highlight it, and you see the selected field shows a highlight on the form page. Use the Zoom In tool to see the fields clearly. The Forms Tools toolbar has tools for each type of form field. The Fields tools show a list of the fields and their types. The Task tools let you work with the fields and the form. You work only in the Forms pane while you’re in Form Edit mode. Now you see your document with the form fields Acrobat found. Click the Do not show check box if you don’t want to see the message every time you start a form! Click OK. The dialog box explains about Form Editing Mode. The open document is selected by default. The option to use an existing file is selected by default. Click Create, then click PDF Form or Online Form to open the Create or Edit Form dialog box.
