Acrobat 9.1  Mac How do you change from Radio buttons to Check boxes?

I have a DMV Form I Downloaded and had to convert to PS then back to PDF (written originally on PC Acrobat was in XML format).
So on new form, I am able to add fields. I used the the Forms manager to automatically create the fields. Fields that were made Radio Buttons should have been Check boxes. How do change the Radio buttons to check boxes. There are a lot of them and I don't wish to have to re-key them in.
Suggestions?

Well when I click on the box it shows a Check mark in the box. That exactly what I need because in the instructions it requires a Check mark in each of the check boxes. Normally the Med form is sent as a paper copy from DMV every two years.
Also another Tip. A PDF that has XML Content. (PC Acrobat Version).
If you want a usable PDF on Mac and get rid of the XML do the following:
Open the XML Based PDF on Mac Acrobat 9.X .
Now choose export and save as Postscript File (.ps).
Now locate and drop on Distiller 9.X.
When PDF created will be a Pristine exact replica of the XML file except Mac Acrobat can edit and create forms with it.

  • How do I get a radio button acting/check box looking "yes,no" set of checkboxes in InDesign CS6?

    I'm able to do radio buttons OR check boxes, but not the desired "pick only one" yes/no checkbox. Have found lots of general info but not this specific answer. Thanks for any help.

    If I'm understanding your question correctly, you want the FUNCTION of radio buttons (choose only one) with the APPEARANCE of checkboxes (choose all that apply).
    If this is the case you have two options:
    • Create the buttons in ID as radio buttons and edit their button state appearances as appropriate, OR
    • Just create the labels in ID and make the buttons in Acrobat, where there are 6 visual options for radio buttons.

  • How do I change text size in a check box in CS3

    How do I change text size in a check box in CS3?

    While I've never done it myself for a checkbox, components
    have a textField property which is essentially the texfield inside
    the component. You probably need to apply a TextFormat to it to
    change the size.
    But if this involves the same problem you had yesterday,
    where you couldn't change the width of the checkbox, I doubt you'll
    have much luck changing the text size

  • How do you change the colour of the "colour boxes" in themes?

    Creating a book in Aperture the various "Themes" offer you different layouts.  When you are in a Theme - is there a way to change the colours of the background boxes (Not page colour) - I have searched everywhere to see how to do this and a simple thing like this seems like it is not possible.  Yes you could make a photo of the correct colour you want and drag it in but surely there is a simple way of changing the colour of these theme boxes. 
    The theme I am using is Special Occasion and I want to darken the lightblue boxes behind the text. 
    Would appreciate anyone out there who could advise on this please, thank you in advance.

    Richard,
    there is no built-in option to change the color boxes. You can only change them by patching the Resorces in the Aperture application bundle, and that is risky.
    The color of the background boxes is set in the property list (for the Extra Large Book):
    /Applications/Aperture.app/Contents/Resources/Book Themes/Special Occasion/ExtraLarge/Graphics/BlueRect.plist
    The current value is:
    backgroundColor {224, 241, 238, 100}
    To try what happens, when this value is changed, I edited it to {100, 200, 255, 100}
    You will not really want to patch your Aperture application bundle
    What you might try, would be to copy the "Special Occasion" subfolder of the Book Themes and to create your own custom theme from this and install it in your user library
    ~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/Book Themes/

  • How do you change the colour of the text box?

    A lot of the text box options seem different for DC. Is there a way to change the colour of the text box that you create/the borders etc.?
    In the past, you would just press Ctrl+E and a toolbar would pop up so that you could fiddle w/ the colour of the background etc. This seems to be gone.
    Thanks for your help!

    Hi, Rahul,
    Thank you for replying back.
    Unfortunately, I have tried what you have suggested and the only thing that I get is a box that says "Properties: No current selection."
    Could you please possibly see what it is that I am doing wrong?
    I created the text box, wrote whatever inside, clicked somewhere outside the box and then clicked on the text box and I still only get "Properties: No current selection."
    Thank you,

  • How do I change the text in a field with radio buttons or check box?

    Hi All:
    I have a form that has a list of things with check boxes (could be done with radio buttons) at the bottom. The client wants a single field at the top of the form that repeats the text next to the checkboxes. For example if a user checks the box next to the words "You did thing 1 wrong" the client wants "You did thing 1 wrong" to appear in this text box at the top of the form. If the user checks the box next to the words "You did thing 2 wrong" the client wants the words "You did thing 2 wrong" to appear in the magic box at the top of the page. There are 10 different check box options, so the box at the top would need to be able to have 10 different things in it.
    Client is not interested in a drop down menu. I asked.
    I am in a bit over my head here, so my question is twofold.
    1. Can you do this in Acrobat Pro 10 on a Mac?
    2. Can you supply me with code?
    Thanks in Advance,
    Amy W.

    Create a text field and make this script its custom calculation script :
         var a ="";
         if (this.getField("Check1").value == "Yes"){
         a="You did thing 1 wrong";
         event.value = a;
    Also, replace "Check1" with the name of your check box or radio button, and give it an export value of "Yes".

  • How do you bind a radio button to a row in a table

    Im developing a web page that does a search given certain criteria. It displays the results in a table and dynamically allocates a radio button for each row that is created.
    I then want to be able to select the radio() button and display the row that was selected by the radio button on another page.
    Im doing a project in college developing a online airline ticket booking system. The user searches for flights and is displayed back with the Outgoing flights and the return flights. Each flight that is displayed is given a radio button. The problem is that I want to let the user select the a radio button that corresponds with their choice of flight and display this flight on the next page.
    Can anyone help me please with some code or ideas on how to go about doing it
    Thanks very much Nicky

    I suppose you do something like this:
    <sql:query var="var" scope="request">
    SELECT * FROM table
    WHERE something = ?
    <sql:param value="${param.something}" />
    Right??
    When you start the page, add:
    <%@ page language="java" %>
    Then under that
    <% int i = 0; %>
    Then:
    <html>
    <body>
    <form action="your_action" method="post">
    <table>
    <c:forEach items="${var.rows}" var="v">
    <% i++; %>
    <tr>
    <td>
    <input type="radio" name="yourname<%= i %>" value="yourvalue">
    </td>
    </tr>
    </c:forEach>
    <tr>
    <td>
    <input type="Hidden" name="i" value="<%= i %>">
    <input type="Submit value="next page">
    etc. etc.
    Follow me so far?

    Don't import anything.
    Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from old comptuer to /Music/ on new computer.
    This is all you need to do to copy iTunes.
    Everything in iTunes will be exactly as it was on other computer.

  • How do you change the font in multiple text boxes?

    I just started using illustrator and I can't figure this one out.  Maybe someone can point me in the right direction.
    I made a bunch of text boxes using the type tool.  Is there a way I can link the boxes and easily change the font?
    Thanks,
    Justin

    You select the text frames holding dow the shift keys then go to Type>Thread text, I would select the text frames in the order you wan them threaded.
    Then once threaded you click the text tool inside of one of the text strings and do a command A to select all the text and then choose any method of changing the font such as Character Panel, Control Panel or Type>Font menu item.
    you can also look into creating Paragraph styles as well.
