Adding Check Boxes

Post by 8fjrode3 »

I have a PDF form & need to add a couple hundred check boxes. Is there an easy way to do this? How can I change the default size of the check box created from Edit Form>Check box?

1) Add check boxes
Once that you have clicked the "Edit Form" button, followed by the "Check Box" icon (in the Forms toolbar) AND the "Keep mode" icon (= the pin in the Forms toolbar), you can continue clicking where-ever you need check boxes.
Via the View-menu > Show > Show grid, you can activate the grid display so that positioning your check boxes will be more easy.

2) Set the default size
Change the size of a check box, then right mouse click on that check box and click "Make current properties default".

Regards.

Hi!
Thanks for the answer willy,
Sadly he is right here too, there isn't really a quick way to add them beyond clicking a couple hundred times... sorry!
