Here's my issue: I have designed a fillable form for a variety of different clients. All the forms are identical, except each form needs to be individualized with the client's logo. I do not have access to a program such as InDesign, where I can set up master pages and layers, so in essence I have been creating a new form for each client in Word and then converting to PDF.

Is there any way to simply replace the picture/image of the logo on each form after it's been made fillable? This would save me a lot of time. I've tried to use the TouchUp Object tool, but it doesn't do anything to the image.

Thanks,

What I would recommend is to replace the image in Word and create a new PDF. Then you can open the completed form in Acrobat and select "Document > Replace Pages" to replace the old page with the new. The form fields will be retained and just the underlying page contents will change.Another thing you can do is set up an icon-only button and use it to display the logo. It's easy to replace the button icon with a new logo. Make the button read-only. In this case you would leave out the icon in the Word document.

Thanks George. Those are both good solutions. The solution I decided to test was the button used as an icon. I found it was easy to switch logos that way. This has saved me lots of time. Thanks!
