Identify Forms - Unable to delete text field

Post by z.chall »

I have made my own PDF (on google docs) and downloaded in PDF form to then use text fields in PDF-XChange.

I used the identify forms tool which grabbed all the boxes I wanted to convert to text fields but it grabbed a few random spots that I don't want. Trouble is that I cannot delete the fields (delete button is disabled).

There is no security on the PDF and I'm running editor PLUS licence.

Hi,
you should choose 'Select Fields' first, then you'll be able to delete selected field.
