Taking out lines from a fillable form

[Melody429]

I created a fillable form from a Word document. The Word document contained lines for people to write in their answers. I would like to remove those lines now, but when I use Acrobat's editing features to erase the lines, the contents of the document shift. I want everything to stay in place. Is it possible to remove the lines without having the contents shift?

Use the redaction tool of Acrobat Pro.

Thank you! That seems to be working!

Apparently not in the Enterprise version circa 2024. 😞

Unfortunately, it's just a workaround.
Acrobat Pro should reach the level of competition and allow to edit texts without screwing things up.
