![]() However, there doesn't seem to be any built-in way to use that template once it's defined. Okay, so I tracked down the option to make the page a template. How hard would it be for them, if nothing else, to make a "paste special" option, allowing us to paste a bunch of fields without their being linked.Īpologies if I'm missing something, but I find it difficult to understand how in 20+ years of development, no one has thought "You know, maybe people should have an easy way to make unique copies of the same form fields." How hard would it be for them to include a simple checkbox in the "duplicate across pages" dialog "make unique copies" or the like. I can't imagine the developers really think people would want to copy a large number of fields onto multiple pages of a document but only have the option to keep their content linked together. It only makes linked fields with the same name? Really? So I have to rename 750 form fields by hand? Oh good, there's a "Duplicate Across Pages" option. Create Multiple Copies only duplicates the fields on the current page? I try clicking "Create Multiple Copies" - and get "Cannot create multiple copies of this selection." So I made absolutely sure each field on the initial page had unique names. I have a document which needs the same 50 odd forms to be placed on 16 different pages. ![]() I am quite certain this has been asked before, but it boggles my mind that there isn't a better answer than "you have to do it with custom code."
