Using Acrobat DC on an iMac Running 10.12 (Sierra). Trying to make some calculated fields in a form. When I double click on the text field to define the calculation I only get the following Text Field Properties: General, Appearance, Position, Options. I don't see Actions, Format, Validate and Calculate like I did on previous versions. Where has it gone?

Click on Tools - Prepare Form and then click on "More" at the right side of the window and then on "Revert to Acrobat Form".

By the way, this happens when you select the option to prepare the file for

digital signatures, or something like that, so avoid doing it in the future.
