[Hidden-tech] Printing a PDF with fillin forms

[B. Kimo Lee]

Hi Rich,

I'm not in front of the workstation that has Acrobat Pro on it, but if  
I'm not mistaken, when you set up each form field using the form tool,  
I believe there is a "Print" checkbox or something to that effect that  
must be checked. It didn't sound like the checkbox you mentioned was  
the same type. Hopefully someone else will have answered this  
definitively before tomorrow, when I'll be able to "check". Hope this  
helped in some way.

Best,
Kimo
