How do I add fillable fields to a pdf file and will Acrobat Pro DC and edit Live Cycle files?

We just installed Acrobat DC Pro and I'm not seeing how to add fillable fields to a pdf file.  Please let me know how to do this and which tutorial I could use to learn the differences between Pro 11 and DC Pro.  Also, will DC Pro edit pdf files created with Live Cycle?  Thanks for the help!!

To add fillable fields use the (Prepare) forms tool. Tip: in DC the easiest way to find a tool is the Tool Search facility, they aren't arranged logically. Expect everything to be utterly different from XI.

 

Acrobat has never edited LiveCycle Designer (XFA) forms. At one time Acrobat included a copy of Designer, but it has not done so for many years.
