      My InDesign document (including a form page) exports as an interactive pdf nicely except for two text fields (out of about 20), which display in Acrobat with a red dashed keyline around them. All other text fields have no keyline — and the InDesign document shows no keylines around any of the text fields. Can anyone advise what might be causing this wrong display in Acrobat, and how I can turn the offending key lines off?

      Sorry, I was wrong: the offending red keylines display as lines in Acrobat, not dashes (I was confusing the InDesign display).

      This sounds like something that happens in Word when it’s in outline view.

      Thanks Michele. I was struggling with why certain text fields displayed a red keyline in Acrobat while all the others (theoretically identical in format) didn’t. But since then I’ve found that there are no red key lines visible in the final pdf version I created. So maybe it was simply a transitory display issue . . . ?
