Content of some fields is shown twice

Hello!

I made a Form with Acrobat Pro DC. I set the font-size of every field to 9pt. If I type something, some of the fields show their content twice (once with 9pt, once with the size that would be used if it were set to "auto"), some of the fields are correct.

Why? And - even more important - how do I fix it?

That was not the problem, but while checking it, I found the problem. I don´t know why, but there was a second field with the same name right behind the field that I was trying to fill, so the fields shared the same content with different font-sizes, so it was displayed twice.

Thanks for helping me!

Fields with the exact same name share their value.

You need to change the field names to fix this problem.
