Fillable pdf does not fill the calculated fields on Chrome os?

How can we activate the calculated fields in a fillable pdf on Chrome os?

 

To be compliant we need to use a fillable form (PDF) with calculated fields. We can fill in the fields but the calculated fields do not calculate , so they stay at 0.

We work on Chrome OS.

How can we use this fillable form and activate the calculated fields on Chrome OS?

Since the original poster was using the default Chrome viewer, this is a question for Chrome's maker, Google. Many PDF viewers don't support calculated fields. Adobe don't make software for ChromeOS, but you might try installing and using their Android Acrobat Reader. This has very limited calculation support.

Which Adobe app are you using on Chrome OS? So far as I know you would be using Google's app.

Thank you for your reaction. We use the default pdf viewer. This question is also asked at the Google team. I wonder if someone already has a solution other than Google's.
