Question

Form now asks for signatures on every field. Cannot add text.

I have a pdf form I created awhile back that has fillable fields and a signaure block at the bottom.  Today, I opened that form, and all my other forms, and I'm prohibited from adding or editing text.  Each field prompts me for an e-siganture.  Could anyone give me a guidance on this? Maybe how to correct this?

Thank you.

Hi William256821780iv4 and Loren36961401onsv,

 

Thank you for your patience so far.

 

The issue has been resolved. Please reboot the machine and then relaunch Acrobat.

Then, wait for some time and try to fill out the forms again. 

 

Let us know how it goes.

 

Thanks,

Meenakshi

I am experiencing the same issues it is incredibly annoying! If you are able to click "ok" then the fields become editable again after closing the esig prompt, however, it seems to keep popping back up.

This is a bug in the latest version of Acrobat and Reader, which renders all form fields practically unusable. We are all waiting for Adobe to fix it...
