How to enter information once and have it populate in several places?

I'm combining several forms into one PDF and would like to be able to enter duplicate information one time.
 
What makes the information entered into the fields populate the duplicated fields on all the pages?
 
Thanks!

Hi PinkLisa,

If you have combined the pages into one PDF, all you have to do is give the fields the same name. For example, if you have a field named FirstName on page one, any other fields on any other pages named FirstName will get populated when one of the FirstName fields has data entered into it.

Hope this helps,

Dimitri
