Hi all.
I try to create a PDF form. Instead of text lines, I use images (imported from another program), as it gives me more styling options, and removes the font & encoding issues. However, in the resulting PDF, these images are selectable. So if I have a big image, on which there are (say) 4 fields, all the them are selectable. How do I define the images as unselectable?
Also, I want one of the images to be hidden (and later be turned visible, when the form is complete). I think that can be done with JavaScript, if the image as a name (something like this.getField("Image1").display = display.visible). But how do I define a name to this pasted image?
Thanks a lot!

Editing a PDF in a text file is going to damage it. The damage may sometimes recover, sometimes not, and some apps won't open it. VERY MUCH not recommended.

So: no tag, no read out loud and no accessibility.
Impaired people will love your form!
