I use editable PDF templates for our reports, we use the same report, and then save as everytime, then when we start a new report its the same original blank template, save as, etc.
Recently everytime i tab through the fillable text fields, instead of going to the next field, it brings up a comment window. I've tried looking through the settings and searching this problem, but haven't had any luck
Is this happening on other computers as well? If it is isolated to one system, I would re-install Acrobat - potentially after using the Adobe Cleaner https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/Labs/cleaner.html
If it is happening on other computers as well. I would try to export all pages into a new PDF document and see if that still is causing the issue. Don't just do a "File>Save As", select all the pages, right-click and select to extract the pages, then save the resulting document.
Hi Karl,
I did some more searching and it looks like this is a known bug they are working to fix. Here is the solution that has so far worked for me!
