      I have a document created in InDesign CS6 which needs to be PDF'd with editable text fields so that users can open it in Reader and edit the text in the document and translate it into other languages. Does anybody know how to do this? Many thanks

      I'm still learning CS6 and this is one of my favorite features. I believe that you simply switch to the interactive workspace and click on the panel called 'sample buttons and forms'. You can drag them from the menu to your panel and edit them as needed.

      Yes that's what I thought but when you export to PDF, it clears the existing text and fonts :(

      I know it's possible as I've seen the evidence just can't work out how to do it and Adobe have not been helpful

      Really? Ugh I also know there's a way to do this but it may take a bit more research.
