PDF has fillable fields, but printing blank fields even after it has been saved

Question

I'm using Adobe Acrobat Pro DCWhen filling out the PDF (which has fillable form fields), I have then saved the PDF, but when going to print, it is printing out blank fields.I have checked security under 'File' and 'Properties' and the security is set to 'No Security' and can be opened by "all versions of Acrobat". All restrictions are set to 'Allowed'.What is the solution?

Can you explain how to 'look at the properties of the fields'? In Acrobat use Tools > Prepare FormSelect a field and look at the properties

Hi there

We are sorry for the trouble. As described, printing the forms with fillable fields results in blank print out.

++ Adding to the discussion

Would you mind sharing the version of the Adobe Acrobat Dc you are using? To check the version go to Help > Check for updates and make sure you have the latest version 20.009.20074 isntalled. Go to Help > Check for Updates. and see if that makes any difference.

Is this a behavior with a particular PDF form or with all the PDF forms that you fill and try to print? Please try with a different PDF form and check.

Are you the creator/author of this PDF form or have you got the form from a different user? Please check how the PDF form is created? Open the PDF form > Files > Properties > Under 'Description' check the 'Application' used for crreating the PDF form.

You may also try to print the PDF form as an image and see if that works for you. Go to Print > Advanced > Print as Image

Keep us posted with the results
