When you create a form to fill out fields of an existing pdf file, how do you define or allow end users set the font size in the fields?
I managed to create a pdf form using an existing pdf document. However, the font size is too large to allow the end user to type information in the form region. Is there a way for 1) globally and/or 2) allow the end user to change the font size if necessary to put all the information in a box without police being so big & set all form fields when generated a lot more small font size?
If the form field is created with the 'Allow Rich Text Formatting' option, the use can pull up the 'Properties', 'Ctrl' + E tool and change the format of the text such as the police, size, super/u: script, color, etc.
Change the size of the text in the field of form (rich text formatting allowed)

Create a form to fill out that can be saved by others
Hi, I work in Adobe Acrobat X Pro, I'm on a PC
I know you go to file > save as... > reader extended pdf >
After that, I get "allow adding text in the Documents (which are not fillable)...".
I then get a form that uses a 'typewriter' tool. "This isn't what I want. I want a form to fill out that can be saved by the person filling out the form and not necessary to use the typewriter tool. I don't like the way looks or works. I hope that there is someone who can help. I used to be able to do this and do not understand what has changed.
Thank you!
You must select activate additional features, so what you try to do
is to allow users of Reader (before XI), fill in the fields on the form and then save
file.

How to create a form to fill out on the iPad?
Hello
I created a form of pdf report/time sheet daily to be completed by our superintendents of construction on their iPad. I tried everything (including all free download - and some not so free apps from the app store) and still can not get my forms to work on iPads. Most of them won't open even my file. I have no problem buying an app, but I'd love to know that it will indeed work beforehand.
My questions are:
- Can I create a form with Acrobat Pro, which can be filled in on an iPad?
- What iPad applications actually offer this feature?
- (If we make it that day) Are there restrictions on the complexity of the forms I create?
Additional information: I sent the pdf form document to myself as an attachment. On my desk, it opens like a normal PDF. On my iPad it is labeled as "winmail.dat" and will not open.
Thank you.
Yes, it works very well with all types of form fields, fields of digital signature but are treated as electronic signatures, digital signatures not. You should get the app and try out it, it's a very nice app.
You'll have to research more on the winmail.dat issue yourself, there is a lot of info out there. I think that the settings of the e-mail server (Exchange) can have an effect as well. Have you tried not to use Outlook to send e-mail?

I'm unable to "save under" when you work on an existing PDF file - how to fix this?
I have an existing pdf and make a change, acrobat doesn't let me do a backup to give the file a new name or save it to a new location. I've just updated to DC on a new computer with Yosemite. Any ideas how to operate?
Hi joannk,
The default "Save as" dialog Acrobat DC is different from the dialogue box you had in earlier versions of Acrobat, it also allows you to record in the clouds and previous locations that you saved the files. It is possible that when Acrobat tries to connect to the 'cloud', it runs into problems. You can try to disable this feature to see if this brings your backup in the back of the box: open Acrobat Preferences, then go to the "General" category and uncheck "show the online storage when you save files:
Kind regards

I have created a form to fill out that is a contract, but I need a way for the person who is to fill the form to insert their logo. Is it possible for someone to insert a logo when you fill out the form to fill out? I'm looking for all the options under the button 'add a text field.
It is not possible within a text field, either. If they have Acrobat, they can use the built-in under Tools - editing content Add Image tool.
If they drive XI or higher, they can use a button form field you will need to set up for them, but the image must be in PDF format.

Is it possible to lock a form to fill out, once it is filled in by the user?
I created a form to fill out for my client. When the customer completes the form and saves it, I want the shape editable or locked. Is it possible to do it without a digital signature?
I use Adobe Acrobat DC and have read most of the information on safety, but it seems that the only way to do this is to apply a digital signature.
I can't put a button on the document as it will be used for printing once completed. Is there a javascript hack method?
You can embed a code in the file that flattens until the file is saved and under certain conditions will also apply a security policy, but the latter is more complex.
Just to flatten the file is easy, however. Enter the following under Tools - code JavaScripts - Document Actions - Document will save:
if (app.viewerType!="Reader") this.flattenPages();
Note that this is not reversible. So use it with caution, especially when used as will win command, because you will not be able to revert to the version of the file with the fields, unless you have a backup of it. If you want that it is possible to inform the user about this step and ask their approval before running it.

I have several pdf documents created using a form to fill out. When I try to create a combined PDF information either is removed from all pages after the first page or all the pages after the fact look page 1 as duplicate page 1. what I am doing wrong?
The problem is that these files have fields with the same name in them, thus
When you merge them they become copies of each other and of all their
the values are the same.
To avoid it you must either rename the fields before you merge the files
or flatten, converting them to static content.

I have problems with the form widget. When I created my forms, I need to leave out the line, one email because my client does not want the message line and two because those who have tried to fill the online form cannot submit because the 'email' box keep rejecting their email address valid. And I just tried to remove the line in my form and it does not allow me to delete or to mark it as not necessary either.
Currently, there is no way around the field email forms of the Muse. Another option is to have a look at Jotforms or another third-party provider of shape that Muse has widgets for.
