Hello all,

I've created a few fillable text fields, selected 'Scrollable' and 'Multi-line' options but when the document is exported as 'Interactive PDF' the scroll doesn't work. I'm not entrirely sure why this is hapenning as I've done this before and it worked but now I cannot understand why text field boxes don't have a scroll bar when I input text.

Any tips are welcome. Thank you

Interactive PDFs are only guaranteed to work correctly in Acrobat 9 and above. With any other PDF viewer it is a crap shoot as to what part, if any, of the interactivity will work.
