How To Hide List Box Dropdown Icon In PDF-Xchange Editor Plus For Printing

Post by Zdosse935 »

I have this PDF document. I want to hide the "list box icon" in a red circle so when printing, the drop-down icon doesn't appear on the paper, but I couldn't find a way to do that. When I changed the setup to "visible but not printed" all the text in the list box disappeared while the goal here is just hide the "list box icons".

I'm using PDF-Xchange Editor Plus

Here are some pictures of the current setup in the file.

Hello, Zdosse935

So far as my tests go, these are never included:

Might I ask that you export your application and send them over here if these are being included, so we can take a closer look?

Also, I should note that there is an option when printing to only show field Content, not the border elements:

Kind regards,

I found a solution. In "visibility" setting, I left it as "visible" when printing the paper, the dropdown icon not there.
