Is there a way for someone who is filling out a form to circle an item instead of check boxing it? If so, how would I go about doing this?

They would have to use the commenting tools, and that would cause one to lose the ability to 'see' the choice in JavaScript and possibly in a printed format.

I want to be able to set it up so that when they click on that word it is circled. I found a forum posting about creating and open field button so I am working through that now to see if it will serve my purposes.

I'm trying to create a button that circles a chosen text from a scanned pdf:

Yes No
Yes No

Could anyone give me specific steps to do this? I found some examples with button images, text fields, codes and javascripts from a forum, but can't seem to make it work for me. Could anyone give me step by step, please.
