PDF fields not displaying when not permanent

asked on October 29, 2015

Currently a customer is attempting to have a PDF form to remain fillable after the fields in the PDF have been updated. They want this functionality to remain just in case there is an issue with data that was filled out in the fields that need to be changed due to a mistake. This uses the Fill Out PDF Form activity in Workflow and works with no issues if the Make Content Permanent check box is checked. The only issues is that the PDF becomes un-editable if this is checked. If this is unchecked the fields in the PDF are filled out though you need to click on the field to reveal the data in the field. Is there any work-around for this?

Try checking the "Align field data" box in the settings of the PDF Fill activity. Click the little cog next to the help question mark.
