When I type values into a form field, the value duplicates when I move to the next field. (the small 5 is the correct value and the larger one appears when I move on. WHY?

Go to Form Edit mode (Tools - Prepare Form). Are you not able to select the field and delete it?

It's also possible that the underlying number is just static text. In that case it should still remain there when you change the value of the field.

You probably created duplicate copies of the same field, but with different display options. The value is automatically the same.

I just created this form by making the figure in excel and then creating the form in Adobe DC...any suggestions? It won't let me select a field to delete it, like you were suggesting that there were multiples over-laid.
