The only program that can view all flairs of PDFs is Acrobat (Pro). All other PDF viewer fail in the one or other form. Use Acrobat for solving this problem.

with more testings, this happen to all browsers using the adobe plugin.
The forms are being filled out by regular users and they are NOT going to pay for Acrobat Pro.
Anyone has any solutions?

BTW, I'll tell you what I tell everyone else who complains about forms in a browser...stop using PDF and create a proper form on your website or use a Google Form.
