Acrobat Pro DC - Editable table within forms

Hi all,

I've been asked to create a PDF Form, with only fields editable (so far, so good) but there is another challenging criteria: they want to have editable tables. By editable table I mean insert a blank table that the forms users will be able to edit to add as much row as they need.

From what I've read on serveral forums, I don't think it's possible with Acrobat Pro DC but I might be wrong.

Can anyone confirm if it's doable or not? And if yes provide me with some advices?

Thanks!

    It's not impossible, to have hidden table rows which you make visible as needed. It's a huge amount of very fiddly programming. And it doesn't move other stuff down. So I think "not possible" is the best answer. Perhaps these people really need Excel forms. Or HTML.
