Form Field tool is barely visible for me to see when pulling a new form field box.

Question

When I select the "Text Field" tool I cannot see the Cursor/Box as a reference to where the cursor is so I can pull a custom sized field box. It is a very faint white which can only be seen when over a dark area. In the past this was a light blue color that I can see making it easier to place custom fields. Where can I find how to change this. Thank you.

Hi there

Hope you are doing well and sorry to hear that

Is this an issue with a particular PDF file or with all the PDFs? Please try with a different PDF file and check.

Have you started experiencing this issue recently? What is the version of the Acrobat DC you are using? To check the version go to Help > About Acrobat and make sure you have the recent version 24.02.20687 installed. Go to Help > Check for updates and reboot the computer once.

Also try to repair the installation from the help menu (Win Only) and see if that works.

Please try to reset the Acrobat preferences as described here https://adobe.ly/3UmMIQJ and check

You may also try to create a new test user profile with full admin rights in Win or enable the root account in MAC and try using the application there and check.

Let us know how it goes.
