How do you move existing form fields around in a pdf

[TMiB03]

Sorry if this has already been asked, I tried doing a search, but it came up with 20+ pages to look through. Is there a way to move a form field around on a page similar to Adobe?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Hi TMiB03

you must be referring to Adobe Acrobat Professional to move form fields as Adobe Viewer does not to my knowledge allow this. Our Viewer also cannot currently do this. We are however working on a Form Builder application that most likely will be able to do this. It is however at present still in the early stages of development and while we'd like to see it launched later this year right now it's still too early to commit to a date. Keep an eye on Tracker Software Products for this in coming months.

thank you for the reply, you are correct, I am referring to the ability of Acrobat Pro to be able to select form fields and move them around. Will this Form Filler application be included as part of the viewer pro/pdf tools? or would it be something separate. currently I am using the Open Source Pdfedit in Linux to move my fields around, it is a few extra steps, but it gets the job done. It would be nice if this was part of the Viewer pro, not just the ability to add form fields, but also the ability to move them around.

Hi,

there will be some options in the Viewer PRO or as an optional plugin to the viewer to achieve this - allowing properties to modified/fields moved etc - but we are planning to release a dedicated forms designer package that will be far more powerful and flexible
