How can I insert instructions/text in a PDF form text field that can be typed by the end user?

How can I insert instructions/text into a text form field that can be typed by the end user? As the screenshot attached.

I already have a PDF (not created by me) I have to edit but cannot work out how to enter into new fields of text instructions, I create. I tried to do in InDesign, but the text gets just covered by the blue shape box when you view the final PDF file.

Follow the instructions as default value for the field and then reset the form.

    If you used a standard text for the 'legend' field you could set the value by default (in the value of the object palette tab) in the legend and the legend of the value None (in the page layout palette).

  • How can I get to the screen to insert the DNS settings? Printer continues to fall from the network

    Windows 7

    Photosmart 6520

    How can I get to the screen to insert the DNS settings? Wireless network printer continues to fall.

    The screen to manually set the DNS and IP parameters is in the SAP, or shipped to the printer Web server.  To access this page, it will take the IP address of the printer.  This information is found by pressing the icon on the front of the Photosmart 6520 wireless.

    Once again, we have the IP address, and then they could type this information in the address bar of their favorite browser.

    On another thread, you have mentioned the difficulties getting to the Web integrated printer server.  It is possible that the printer has a valid IP address, but still has no "communication" with the router.  Have you tried to enter the menu of the 6520 wireless and default network selection.  After having done that, then we can re - run the Wireless Setup Wizard in the wireless menu to reconnect the printer to the network.

    With this new valid IP address, you can access SAP of the printer?  In addition, make sure that the printer and the PC are connected to the same network access point.  Let me know how it goes.

    Hello

    Edit the element... There is a Readonly tab... Enter the condition for readonly... for example... Suppose you have a hidden field P1_X for the primary key. To add the new record, this field will be null and for editting p1_x will have the primary key value...

    So you can make the condition as P1_X readonly IS not null...

  • MY DELL LATITUDE D610 HOW CAN I UPGRADE TO THE NEW VERSION OF WINDOWS? NOW IT IS WINDOWS 7, WHAT VERSION IS SUPPORT FOR USE WELL ON MY DEVICE?

    MY DELL LATITUDE D610 HOW CAN I UPGRADE TO THE NEW VERSION OF WINDOWS? NOW IT IS WINDOWS 7, WHAT VERSION IS SUPPORT FOR USE WELL ON MY DEVICE? PLEASE HELP ME

    Read this: upgrade Windows 10 Dell Latitude D610

    Take a look at my answer, complete instructions.

    Basically speaking, Dell officially supports Windows 2000 and Windows XP on Dell Latitude D610 (and other models of Dx10).

    However it can really run Windows Vista and 7 at least, as long as you max out the RAM (2 GB, 2 x 1 GB, can be purchased at a great price in eBay) and install the drivers, in particular graphics drivers, look in Device Manager and see what drivers are needed manually.

    If you're lucky to have a D610 with ATi graphics card then you can even run Windows 8 and 10 with all drivers available, and I can tell you that it won't be slow dog not unlike a lot of people say, I don't have something similar (a HP Compaq nx8220) in common use. Keep as lean as possible (not bloatwares, anti-virus etc.) system, and it will serve you well.

    To order the creative cloud with a credit card the United States, you must have an Adobe ID with United States in your country.

    The country store & the Adobe ID, payment details must be same.

    For tax reasons, it is not possible to change the country associated with an existing Adobe ID. To work around the problem, you can create a new Adobe ID to the e-mail address associated with your existing Adobe ID see the link for instructions:

    Change the country associated with your Adobe ID

    the FORCE_MATCHING_SIGNATURE column is also entered in the ASH / historical AWR views V$ ACTIVE_SESSION_HISTORY / DBA_HIST_ACTIVE_SESS_HISTORY / DBA_HIST_SQLSTAT.

    .. and after all, you can join these views as described with DBA_HIST_SQLTEXT, if necessary.

    DBA_HIST_SQLTEXT displays the text of SQL statements belonging to shared SQL cursors captured in the repository of the workload. This perspective captures information from V$ SQL and is used with the DBA_HIST_SQLSTAT view.

    For example, if the "First Name", "Last Name" and "City" text fields are not filled, the text of "the State of completion" field displays 'Incomplete' and once they are filled, the text of "the State of completion" field will turn into "Complete".
