New PDF Form Field: Push Button Form Field

(See Example PDF and Example PDFill Project File  )

A push button form field is a purely interactive control that responds immediately to the user input without retaining a permanent value. It is often used with PDF Action. You might create a button to create a URL Link, clear data in a form, or submit form data to a web address or email account.

1. Here are the steps on how to create a Push Button PDF Form Field:

• Choose Insert Menu > Form Fields > Select Push Button Tool,

or click the 6th button in the Form Toolbar.

• Hold Left mouse button to create a form field of the required size
• The new form field properties dialog comes up to set options
• To copy multiple fields in one time, select the current text, click the Table Tools
• To adjust the height of the box using the Font Size, click the Height Adjust Tool
• You can create fields with the same name inside the same page or across different page

2. To access form field properties:

• Click the Selection button first.
• Click inside the field to highlight it and click Properties Button
• Or, click the edge shadow and double-click again
• Or, Key F4

3. Set Field Properties:

There are 4 tabs for the Combo Box Field.  Only Options Tab is different than that of Text Box field.
Please see the Text Box Field's tabs for General, Appearance, and Actions.
