I have a Yes/No drop down within my PDF. I have this same Y/N response about 25 times in my document. I don't want to recreate this every time. However when I copy the first drop down, they all seem to be linked. When a person responds to any of the drops downs, the others all mirror this same response. How can I copy and unlink them?
Change the names of the dropdowns.

Hi!!
I am in a similar situation however I have already renamed each drop down. In fact, it was working successfully and now seemingly out of nowhere they are all linked again:
- when I make a selection on the first drop down it applies to all drop downs
- I am unable to make selections on any drop downs other than the first
**Also, I am using a mac and I feel like I remember reading somewhere that there can be glitches when using acrobat on a mac
Thanks for any help 🙂

Your scripts resets the dropdowns to the first entry.
