Hi darrinm63168279

As explained above, with latest version unable to use Fill & Sign tool.

What happens when you use Fill & Sign tool to fill in a form? If your current form has fillable fields, then Reader DC should let you fill the form in same way you used to do with Reader 11.

  • You can give a try after uninstalling reinstalling the application.

Thanks,

Akanchha
