Highlight Color
Show Border Hover Color For Fields Displays a black outline around a form field when you place the pointer over it.
Fields Highlight Color Opens a color picker for selecting the color of highlighted form fields. The highlight appears
when the Highlight Fields button
on the document message bar is clicked.
Required Fields Highlight Color Opens a color picker for selecting the border color of form fields that must be filled
in. The border appears for required form fields when the Highlight Fields button is selected or after you attempt to
submit the form.
Auto-Complete
Auto-Complete menu Displays three options for Auto-Complete: Off, Basic, or Advanced.
Remember Numerical Data Suggests your previously entered numerical entries when you type the same first character
into a similar field. When deselected, Auto-Complete offers suggestions only for text entries. (Available only when
Basic or Advanced is selected.)
Edit Entry List Displays current entries stored in the Auto-Complete memory. You can select and delete any entries
that you don’t want to keep for filling in future forms. (This option isn’t available if no entries are in the memory.)
Creating and distributing forms
About form elements
After you determine what information you want to receive from users, you can match information types with
appropriate form elements.
• For text and numeric data that the user will type, design the form to use text fields or combo boxes.
• For a single choice from a limited number of options, use radio buttons, a list box, or a combo box.
• For a limited number of options from which the user can select none, one, or more items, use check boxes, or use
a list box and set the form field properties to allow multiple selections.
• For actions, such as opening a file, playing a sound or video, submitting form data, and so forth, use buttons.
• For added security, add a digital signature field that verifies the user’s identity.
You can also make changes to individual form field properties, making it even easier and more foolproof for users
filling in the PDF form.
A PDF form created with Acrobat can contain the following types of elements:
Barcodes Encode the input from selected fields and display it as a visual pattern that can be interpreted by decoding
software or hardware (available separately).
Buttons Initiate a change on the user’s computer, such as opening a file, playing a sound, or submitting data to a web
server. These buttons can be customized with images, text, and visual changes triggered by mouse actions.
Note: Action buttons have a different purpose than radio buttons, which represent data choices made by the user.
Check boxes Present yes-or-no choices for individual items. If the form contains multiple check boxes, the user can
typically select as many or few of these as wanted.
Combo boxes Let the user either choose an item from a pop-up menu or type a value.
Digital signature field Lets the user electronically sign a PDF document with a digital signature.
