ADOBE ACROBAT 3D VERSION 8 217 User Guide • To duplicate the form field on a limited range of pages, click the From button, and type the start and ending pages on which you want the form field to appear. Note: Including or not including the page on which the form field originally appears doesn't affect the duplication process. Including that page won't create a second copy on top of the original one, and not including it won't remove the original form field. Select multiple form fields in Acrobat Selecting multiple form fields is an essential step in several tasks you can perform, such as creating copies, aligning form fields, and adjusting the spacing between form fields. ❖ If necessary, choose Forms > Edit Form In Acrobat, and then do any of the following: • To select all form fields of all types, choose Edit > Select All. • To select a range of form fields, click the first form field in the range, and then Shift-click the last form field. All form fields between the two form fields are selected. • To select individual form fields in different parts of the PDF page, Ctrl-click/Command-click each form field. • To select all form fields in an area of the page, use the Select Object tool to drag a selection marquee around the area. • To select all form fields of a specific type in an area of the page, select the forms tool for that type of field and drag a selection marquee around the area. For example, if you select the Radio Button tool, only radio button form fields are selected. • To deselect an individual form field, Ctrl-click/Command-click that field. The form field highlighted in red is the anchor. When you select multiple form fields by clicking, the last field selected is the anchor. When you use a marquee, the form field that was created first is the anchor. If you Ctrl­ click/Command-click to deselect the anchor, the form field located in the upper left of the selection becomes the new anchor form field. Resize and arrange form fields in Acrobat After you create form fields, you may need to rearrange, resize, or move them to give the page a cleaner, more profes­ sional look.
