Making a form, why does the text type over top of itself in the form field?

Hi, I am making a certificate form for a client to fill out and print when needed. I designed everything in InDesign, exported to pdf, and made a form field for Old English MT for the name and date. When I close the form editing window and type a name in the allocated spot, the letters type on top of each other, not left to right like normal. I am working on a mac, client is on a pc.

Yes its possible it happens when there is a Duplicate Field on top of itself. I helped someone last year that had several fields that were duplicated.
Open Acrobat.
Go to tools menu
Choose Forms.
Click on Edit.
Click the field(s) that appear to have duplicated text.
If your keyboard has arrow keys click on the field then use arrow key to move to left, right, up, or down. If field shows underneath is not moved, delete the field selected.
Repeat as needed.

  • Why does the keyboard cover text fields ios 8

    Why does the keyboard cover text fields in safari in ios 8 in safari?  I've never had this problem before, but now when a text field is near the bottom of the page, I can't move it above the keyboard.  If there any fix? This is extremely annoying and renders filling in text on many web pages impossible.

    This solved it for me. I only needed to split it once before it was fixed (but shouldn't have had to do it at all). Thanks, chuck9999, you're my hero!

    Re: Why does the keyboard cover text fields ios 8in response to TeraBI had the exact same problem on my iPad Air and it's working fine now. Try toggling your keyboard a few times between split and regular using the keyboard key in the lower right corner.  I also then docked the keyboard a few times.  The turned-off/rebooted the iPad and it's worked fine ever since.  I stumbled upon the fix reading another post, and it did work although not sure why.  My guess is toggling the keyboard and rebooting updated something in the "registry".

    I know a lot of people with iphone 5 and have never heard them complain about top button always brake and screen that decides to pop off or the back of their case is bending.
    That sounds like a phone that has been dropped a numerous times.

  • Why does the Safari message "This is a non-secure form" pop up everytime I try to use yahoo mail?

    Why does the Safari message "This is a non-secure form" pop everytime I go into yahoo mail?  If I don't press the send option my whole computer freezes.

    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

  • Texting on iPhone 5.  When texting to multiple people why does the contact list return to the "A"s after you select a contact and try to add the next one in order?

    Texting on iPhone 5.  When texting to multiple people why does the contact list return to the "A"s after you select a contact and try to add the next one in order?  This really slows you down when trying to contact 50 people with information.  iPhone 4 worked just fine.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    None of my pictures that I uploaded into iPhoto are in my Finder under Pictures.  Should I copy and paste my folders from iPhoto into here, in case something happens to my iPhoto program (in addition to backing them up onto an external hard drive like I already do)?
    No, that's just wasting space.  A back up needs to be on a different disk.
    Your photos are within the iPhoto Library.

  • Why does the keyboard take over and type c's all across the search box (no hands involved)?

    Why does the keyboard take over and type c's across the search box (no hands involved)?

    There are only three possibilities. Either a dangling hand hitting the c key, or if you have a bluetooth keyboard connected and something is pressing a key, or you have some bad harware.  Eliminate the first two, and if you still have the problem, take it in for service or replacement

  • Why does the macbook pro use both types of storage?

    Why does the 13inch retina have both the 8gb hardrive and the flashdrive?

    Oops reading your question again, I see there is a misunderstanding:
    http://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/specs-retina/
    The 8GB is not hard drive memory.  It is chip memory just for multi-tasking purposes, and it can be custom configured to 16 GB of multi-tasking memory.  If you wanted to store applications or data files on it, you can create a RAM disk, but it actually would be copying the information off the SSD.  There is no "permanent" storage of data on the 8GB or 16GB of RAM.
    There is no platter hard drive anymore.
    The 128 GB is the SSD memory on the 13" model by default, and can be custom configured to 512GB of SSD memory.
    The odd thing is your SSD can do swap file storage for multitasking, but also doubles as your place to store actual data files.
    For awhile Apple mixed both platter and SSD.  Looks like that is no longer the case at least with the 13" Retina.
    SSD memory is comparable to hard drive memory in that it is more "permanent" storage after reboot.  Calling it permanent is a misnomer though, since hard drives and SSDs can both fail without any warning, and a backup is always recommended:

  • Why does the screen on my iPad mini jump around?  Apps open and close, I can't get back to the home screen.  Is my mini possessed?

    Why does the screen on my iPad mini start jumping--larger, smaller--can't close apps.  I reboot and still it happens.  Any suggestions?

    If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...  Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • Why does the highlight feature seem not to work about 1/2 the time in various ibooks.  I'm trying to take notes and about 50 pages into a book the highlight feature stopped working.

    I've long noted that the highlight feature in ibooks is clunky and fairly limited in it's note-taking features, but the last two books I've read I've had trouble getting the highlight feature to work at all.  I click and drag over text and nothing happens.  I try with command depressed and nothing happens.  If I double click a bunch it will eventually highlight one word, but nothing more.  What gives?
    Also, not to be snarky, but why can't I seem to find a button that would read text to speach for me?  How do blind people use this service, or illiterate, or dyslexic, or people like myself who can learn far more from hearing then from reading. 
    And why does the text of a book often render so that it's haf cut off of the page?

    There is a button for speech within the iBooks menu. Edit > Speech. You might be better off buying Audiobooks. You can get them from the iTunes Store or Audible.com
