Integrity of Forms - need to type without OCR

  • April 9, 2025

I am struggling with trying to use and re-use forms. We used to use a different program, and not have no choice but to use Adobe Pro, or adobe Sign. 

 

Our situation: we used a template of a proprietary  form, we were able to fill it in, and re-use over and over for different clients. 

With Adobe, it tries to OCR the form, and we lose the integrity.

I literally need to type on it. Nothing more.

Is there a way to make templates to do this in Adobe?

 

Please any help would be amazing.

Hi melanie_3183,

 

Thank you for reaching out.

 

If you are using the Acrobat Sign feature to send the document for signature, you can create an Acrobat Sign template. So, the next time you use the template, it will not run the OCR as it does in PDF form. 

 

Please use the steps suggested in the following help document to create a template: https://adobe.ly/4jpefun. 

 

Let us know if you have any questions or need any help.

 

Thanks,

Meenakshi
