I want to create a PDF Form out of a word document but I dont want the nearest text to be the name of a field. In the word.png you can see that under the line is a description if I create a PDF the description underneath the line is the name of a field but I want to have the text on the left to be the name of the input field.

I know that, but I want to let everything happen auomaticly. So that everytime I create this PDF the field gets the correct name.

In Acrobat, double click on the field to open up the properties. There you can change the name of the field.
