In form editing mode, the names of required fields are highlighted in red.
When you exit form editing mode, required fields will have a red-colored frame if the
Highlight fields option is selected in the yellow pane above the form (or if the Highlight
Fields item is selected in Form Editor in the main menu).
The Required option merely informs the user that a particular field must always be completed. It
does not limit the user's ability to save, e-mail or print a PDF form with required fields left empty.
