Create Dropdown List PDF forms to online fillable forms With Ease For Free

hey everyone how's it going it's joel tolentino here all right so in this video i'm going to show you guys how to add a drop-down menu on your pdfs using adobe acrobat pro dc alright so before i get started i have a whole bunch of free adobe acrobat pro tutorials for you guys so after this one you guys can check out all of those down in the description below alright so i'm here on a test pdf right now this is just one of our gear guides here that we have and you see this right here this is the drop down menu that i'm going to show you guys how to create so obviously you know this isn't an actual place where it goes this is just a test and then you can choose test one test two or test three or whatever choices you want so let me show you how to do this all right so you need to open your pdf and make sure that it is in adobe acrobat pro dc a lot of people open it in the free version of adobe acrobat but you won't have all these options here next you want to head over to the right hand side and you want to make sure that you're in the prepare form if you are not click on the wrench and the plus icon here and you'll see all these choices here click on prepare form what that's going to allow you to do is allow you to add a whole bunch of different things including the drop down menu you see i'm on the prepare form and from here you want to go to this option which is the drop down list option when you click on it it's going to do something like this and this is where you need to decide where you want to place it so let's just pretend like i'm putting it over here and then you can just stretch it out however long or wide you want it and i'll do something like this from here you can change the field name and i would recommend adding a field name if you have many drop downs for example here it says cameras let's just put cameras because let's just pretend like i'm putting the drop down over here once you put in the field name you can head over to all properties now you can also check this required field if you require the person filling out the pdf to fill out that question and you can check that now we're going to head over to all properties where you're going to customize the drop down menu so here you can alter the name again and where you add the drop down choices is in options so here like i did there i just did test one then you click add these are the choices you want people to choose and test two click add test three click add and then i also like to add this last one where it shows in text form that the person needs to choose one so i put the words choose one because as you can see here the last one i entered is test three so but if i add this it's gonna say choose one and it's gonna initiate to the person filling out the pdf form that they need to choose one now you can rearrange these if you need to so for example if you wanted to move test three up one it's now going to be over there if you wanted to move it back down click down but whatever...
