I cannot change the tab order on my form fields--Page properties are set correctly, but the option is greyed out. I'm using Acrobat Pro 7

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 7.0.2, Windows

Hi 1madman,

If your form was created in LiveCycle Designer then you won't be able to change the tab order in Acrobat. However, if this is an Acrobat form then make sure that the Page Properties tab order is set to "Unspecified". Then, you should be able to see the "Set tab order" menu under the Edit fields menu.

Hope this helps,
Lori

I have a form created in Word 2007. Converted it to a pdf document; ran form field recognition; have fields; it won't let me set tabbing order; it also will not let me view page properties (greyed out in both places). What's wrong? (I'm using Adobe Pro 8.1.3.)

I went back into the original Word form (from prior comment); selected "Print to PDF". Ran form field recognition; now I can set the Tab order but page properties is still unavailable to me.
Answers????
