Hi - I am creating an interactive PDF for a Real Estate company that wants a flyer that will allow them to drop in text for the property details they are selling and a photo in a designated photos frame.  The text part is easy but I can not find a tutorial on how to create a photo frame that will allow them to drag and drop their photos.  Help please:)

That's not possible. What you can do is create a button field that prompts the user to select an image when clicked, and then displays that image.

You can do it in less than a minute, but you should read this before: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/whats-new.html#forms

End users with Acrobat Reader DC 2017 will be able to import image files (JPEG, PNG…), end users with older versions will be able to import PDF files only.

    Thank you!  This was helpful and I didn't realize my client needs to use Acrobat Reader to upload their file - that was the missing piece!

        thank you... now to figure out how to do that;)  I found a couple different articles that I will give a try, but just so I know I am on the right track both articles have me typing code into the Java Script Manager.  This is all new to me - does that sound right?  Thank you for responding earlier

        In the latest version of Adobe Acrobat DC use the image field.
