I've got a group of radio buttons defined on a now fillable form that was created by v8's form recognition. The buttons are not able to be "deselected" when the form is viewed with Reader. How can I retrofit these to perform this action? Thanks in advance!

For both radio buttons and checkboxes where you want all buttons/checkboxes in a group to deslect all others when one is selected, name the fields the exact same name. Open the field properties dialog box on each field and click the Options tab. Type a different export value for each field. That should do it.
