Sum in Acrobat doubles

Jul 30, 2012 9:37 PM

Categories: Windows

At work I use Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0 and I've created a form with several fields that I have used Calculate Sum.  It works fine except that the totals consistantly double.  I've used this in other fillable PDF's in the past with success and I don't know what I'm doing wrong.  Nothing else is adding in from other fields and it looks like a straight sum to me.  Any ideas?

    If you have named your fields in a hierarchal manner, text.1, text.2, etc., then you either have to select the top level field name or the individual field names but not both.

    Of course!  Thank you.  I made the adjustment and it works perfectly.
