How can I change the checkbox style in Adobe Acrobat when creating a form? I want a checkbox with 'slash' and not cross. Thanks

The reason is:

I create a printable learning sheet. The user should be able to mark the wrong words in a sentence with a slash by clicking on them!

For this I just wanted to put a checkbox with 'slash' on corresponding words.

I can also use the 'cross', but the default is a classic strikethrough or forward slash!

Or does anyone have another solution?

You can use the comment tool to strikethrough a word, and then place a button over the word with script to show/hide that strikethrough.

I need your help again!

 

If the PDF file has two pages then the code will not work for elements on the 2nd page.

Is there another code for this?


You need to change on which page is annotation, in the script 0 represent first page so if you have annotation on second page change 0 to 1.
