Creating multiple form fields with Acrobat
You can quickly create multiple form fields that have the same field types or even
different form field types. You set up the first row or column of form fields, which act as
the anchor row or column. Then you select the number of rows and columns, the size of
the fields, and the overall position of all the fields on the page. The new fields are named
according to the anchor name and appended with a number. For example, you might
create an anchor field and assign the field name Title. You then create two copies of the
Title form field, the two new form fields would be renamed Title.0, and Title.0.0. All new
fields will be created sequentially, using standard array format.
To create multiple copies of form fields:
1. Using a form field tool, create one or more fields.
2. Ctrl-drag (Windows) or Option-drag (Mac OS) a selection marquee around the form fields.
3. Choose Advanced > Forms > Fields > Create Multiple Copies.
4. In the Create Multiple Copies Of Fields dialog box, do the following, and then click OK:
● Specify the number of fields down and across.
● Specify the overall size for all the fields.
● Use the Up, Down, Left, and Right buttons to position the fields where you want them to
appear.
● Click Preview to preview the results.
