Question

Create form fields when printing to PDF?

Is there a way I can have specific fields created when I print to a PDF in each file automatically?

I have documents which are 40-50 pages each, with 2 x yes/no on page 2, signature on page 3, 2 x signatures on page 4.

The fields are the same on every document.

There are pages of tables with numbers, so if I use Acrobat's automatic form creation, it creates hundreds of form fields. If I create the fields I need manually, it takes a few minutes for each one.

IDEALLY - I would love to embed a code in the source document that would tell Acrobat "Hey - put a mandatory YES/NO field here!", and "Hey - a mandatory signature here, and an optional signature over there"

SECOND BEST - ability copy the fields from a master template into each file, with all necessary options set.

Thanks!!
