Trying to add a submit button at the end of our form. The form field(icon) is missing from the available options. Have checked show/hide tools and customize tool bars. Not seeing it as an option anywhere.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

This is an "Adobe Sign" form. This type of form does not support buttons. Convert it back to a regular PDF form to get the regular controls back.

Hi PSSForms, 

 

As Thom_Parker mentioned above, you are creating the Adobe Sign form.

To convert it back to the Acrobat form, go to "More" option provided at the right hand side of the window.

Then select "Rever to Acrobat form". Check the screenshot below:

Hope the information helps.

Let us know if you have any questions.

 

Regards,

Meenakshi

What version of Acrobat do you have?

If you have DC, then there will be a "Prepare Form" option under tools.

Brand new version - just downloaded yesterday.  I'm using the Prepare Form option, but the button icon does not exist. I have access to everything else I need like text, date, checkbox, radio button, dropdown, etc., but no button.

Any ideas?
