If you want, you can change the font size of the list items at the bottom of the window. A list box is a different layout of the combo box, where instead of a drop down menu, the list is visible in a scrollable box.

From here, users can just highlight the option they want to be selected from the list displayed. You set these up in the exact same way you set up a Combo Box above. Radio buttons are typically used when multiple items may need to be selected from a question or category.

This button is set up much in the same way that a check box is, in which you would need to place the actual button next to information that is already typed out in your InDesign document rather than adding them in the button panel like you do with the list and combo box.

These are set up exactly the same as the check boxes above. This field is a place for users to electronically draw their signature into the document. All you need to do to set this up is to select the box you want to be converted, open the Buttons and Forms field and select Signature Field.

Last but not least, and probably the most useful of the bunch, is an editable text field. A text field allows users to type into the designated spaces of the interactive PDF right from their computer.

This is a super easy field to set up. Select the box you want to transform into a text field while the Buttons and Forms panel is already open. Reader users cannot fill in or save the form. Reader users must have Reader 8 or later. When you choose the Reader-enabling option, save a copy of the form using a different filename, and then send the copy to recipients.

When you go into preview mode do you still see the text or not? All layers are set to print. And as I mentioned, if I convert that particular line of text to outlines, it shows up.
