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

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

Found this answer in another thread - I tried it and it worked!

 

I had this problem too. Once you click on fill and sign, you should see a row of options at the top of your document

Ab  X  (a check mark)  (an oval)  (a line)  (a dot)   Sign

 

To the right of Sign, there is a dot that lets you change font color. But you cannot see it because it is white!!!! Click in that area until you see a color palette. Then choose black or off-black. (I actually couldn't get black to work, so I had to use off-black). That should solve the problem
