When adding text to a fillable form, it is not showing what is being typed. The same goes when I choose to put a check mark next to an item in a pdf document. This is done under the Edit tab. Any idea why, all of a sudden, this is not working anymore?

Are you using Acrobat Pro for desktop, Acrobat Reader, Acrobat for Mobile, or something else? We will be happy to move your post from Creative Cloud Services to the appropriate forum for you.

Is this all fillable forms or just the one? In Adobe applications, you don't have to go to the Edit menu. Are you using Google Drive?

I am using Acrobat Pro using their online subscription. I click on Edit, and either choose a checkmark or text, but when I go to type in text or choose the checkmark it shows the cursor moving when I type, but the box remains blank. Almost like the font is white, but I checked that and it is not.

When you post a question you always need to tell the Adobe program you are using
There are MANY programs in a full subscription, plus other non-subscription programs
Please post the exact name of the Adobe program you use so a Moderator may move this message to that forum
