Undo signature to undo form no longer fillable

New Here ,
Dec 28, 2020 Dec 28, 2020

Hi,

 

I filled out (partially) a fillable pdf form. I signed the signature part of the document and this rendered the document unfillable from that point on which was not my intent. There was no warning that this would happen. I spent alot of time filling out this document and I desperately don't want to have to fill out a brand new one.  Can I "undo" my signature so I can get the fillable fields back or is there something else I can do to get those form fillable fields back?  The fillable parts of the document had a highlighted blue section. Now the document is just black and white and I can't add any text anywhere. Please help!! this has never happened to me in a pdf field before.

I have attached the form. Now, i see that after filling in the signature the form goes all to black and white. How to undo this?

Right-click the signature and select Clear Signature. Also, when signing you're prompted to save the file, if you saved it under a new name you can just return to the original version.

I can right click all I want but I can't make it "undo" my signature? is this because I saved the document after I filled out the signature? Am I stuck here either with a completed document or with a completely empty document? Is there actually a way i can keep my work while also being able to put more info into the form fields? The form fields are now blank and unfillable. Or is this a "can't go back or undo" situation?  Is there someone at Adobe who can or will answer this question or do I just hope the community has the niche knowledge for my question?

What do you see when you right-click it?

Having the same issue. Once you save the doccument it removes the fillable sections. I am about ready to uninstall.
