Check mark boxes

[armanneo]

Hello, i complete forms for insurance companies from time to time and they require that I check mark the boxes. Im aware of how to check them but there are quite a bit of boxes. Once I check a box I have to go back and click "add a checkmark" EVERY TIME. My question is if there is anyway I can just check check check without having to go back and forth every time. Each sheet would take 1/10 of the time to complete, please let me know if that option exists?

Ive tried holding down shift, ctrl etc while I check the boxes in hopes that I would stay but to no avail. Im forced to choose "add a checkmark" again & again

What application, including version number, are you using?

[armanneo]

Im using Adobe reader and its ver 1.3

Please help lol

I highly doubt that, unless you didn't update your computer in the last 20 years or so.

Look under Help - About Adobe Reader.

loll sadly it is 1.3, Okay so assuming I update to the current version. will it have an option so I wont have to go back and forth? Im gonna go update it right now

[try67]

No, that's the PDF version of the file you're opening, not of the application. You're not looking where I suggested.

OKay once at the help section, what should I search for? Sorry im not too versed in Adobe, hence why Im asking for your expertise

forgive me, im having a shit morning. Is updating going to matter in my case?

[try67]

No, an update won't matter. What you're asking for is not possible if you're using the "Add Checkmark" tool from the Fill & Sign toolbar. However, it can be done if you switch to the Stamp tool under the Comment panel. You'll find a very similar check-mark symbol under the Sign Here menu of this tool, and if you right-click the tool's icon you'll see an option called "Keep Tool Selected". Click it and you'll be able to add multiple check-marks in a row.
