I have a fillable form that I am working on. A basic miliage form that adds all of the millage from all 6 pages and gives you the total at the bottom of each page. The form works great in adobe reader. But when I open it in chrome page two duplicates onto page 3-6. Any ideas?

 

I did use simular javascript code to create the last 4 pages.

 

// Duplicate the current page

createTemplate("t1", pageNum).spawn({nPage: pageNum + 1, bOverlay: false});

removeTemplate("t1");

Chrome and Edge are using their own pdf viewers which can cause problems. There is a plugin for Adobe that will open the pdf in the Reader app so they can be viewed and in your case, filled in properly.

Thanks for the assist. I asked the IT office after your post and they echoed your advice as well. I'm just going to suggest anyone that uses the form to open it in adobe reader.
