How do I create a label using PDF forms?

I scanned the blank label and opened it in Adobe Pro. I used the create form option and made text boxes for the areas of the label that I have to fill out daily. Is it possible to print the areas I created without the background? The labels I am printing on already have the background.

Since you're printing on pre-printed labels, you could edit the PDF and remove the background items.

You'll be left with just the form fields.

Use the PDF Edit tools panel, and use the EDIT tool from the top panel.

This will let you select and delete any object on the page.

In the print dialog of Adobe Acrobat use "Form fields only".

I do not see the "forms only" option. Can I use it in the image I have already created?
