To set options for form display and filling, select Kofax Power PDF for Mac > Options > Forms.

  • Automatically calculate field values: Automatically update mathematical operations assigned to form fields, if they exist in an active PDF file you open in the program.

  • Show focus rectangle: See which form field currently has the focus during form filling.

  • Highlight Form Fields: Set highlight options for form fields. The following options are available:

    • Highlight form fields when document is opened: Highlight is active as you open a new document.

    • Show outline hover for fields when mouse enter: Display or hide hover text for a form field being filled. To specify hover text for a form field, use the Properties dialog box. The text might be the field name or filling instructions.

    • Fields highlight color: Specify a background color for form fields when highlighting is ON.

    • Required fields highlight color: Set a separate field border color for required form fields.

  • Auto-Complete: Automatically complete entries typed during form filling by matching them with previous entries. This means frequently used names, addresses and numbers can be selected, not typed. Enable or disable the memory for numerical items. You can edit the memory list.
