Creating a PDF form

[JennA1101]

Wondering if it's possible to create a form that allows text within a paragraph to be filled in? 

Backstory - I've designed the layout of a contract for a friend's business. She'd like to use it as a template in the future, just replacing the client's name throughout the body of the contract without affecting the layout. I realize she could just do a find and replace with Acrobat Pro, or online with an Adobe subscription - but she is incredibly not tech savvy, and I do not want to force her to subscribe to something that she ultimately will not understand.

I'm hoping there's a creative way for me to set it up for her to do it with Reader alone? A PDF form may not be the best way to go about it, but I'm stumped.

You can use a form field for that, but it will leave a blank space if the name is too short, or change the font size (or cut off the text) if it's too long. If you want it to fit perfectly with the rest of the text then you'll need to place the entire paragraph into a form field and use a script to populate it with the client's name (possibly from another text field, or even from a pop-up window).

Thank you - that's more or less what I was finding, but it hadn't occured to me to place the entire paragraph in a form field. I'll explore that option before I throw in the towel!
