Fill & Sign, can't change font color from white in textbox

New Here ,
Feb 22, 2020 Feb 22, 2020

Hello all,

 

All of a sudden when I want to write in pdf's with the fill & sign function the font color in the text box appears white.

I can see that I'm writing and that the letters are there but it's white and I can't change it to black or any other color.

I de-installed acrobat reader and re-installed the latest version but I still have the same mistake.

Any leads?

 

Thank you so much!
Dennis
