Hi Douglas Y,

When you double tap on the PDF and the text box appears with the cursor, you should be able to press and hold in the box to paste content.
The auto-fill feature is not available but you can add custom fields to your Profile.

Thanks,
Lori

How do I paste text copied from another document? I have standard texts, such as addresses, phone numbers, that I frequently need to add, but there appears to be no way to paste into a text field on Android. Furthermore, the Adobe Fill & Sign seems to disable the feature of my virtual keyboard that allows me to select the word without typing it out completely. This makes filling PDF docs very error-prone.
