How do I rotate my fillable boxes?

So while I was editing my form, the fillable boxes rotated for some reason and I'm not sure why. How would I rotate them back?

This is what I'm looking at. I need to rotate the boxes counter clockwise.

The pages are probably rotated (even if they don't look like it). Did you add the form yourself, or did you use some kind of external tool to do it?

It was a file that was sent to me from someone else, but before I started editing the entire document, the boxes were in the correct spot. It wasn't until I got to that page that it flipped.

So you never saw the fields appear correctly on that page? In that case, the author of the form did something incorrectly which caused it. Report the issue to them.

They were correct when I first opened it. They somehow got changed through the editing process.

I can insert the page in again, but as soon as I go to edit the text, the fillable boxes rotate to the side instead of where they are supposed to be.

I am having the same issue.  i started with a scanned document and ran "prepare form"  after closing it out and switching to edit the text all of the filliable boxes rotated 90°.
