Add an address field to a PDF

An address field can be expressed as a single field or as a collection of different components of an address (city, state, street, zip code, etc.). You can use the same general process to add other multi component field types to a PDF such as a name with a different field for the first name, last name, and middle initial.

  2. Line 1 and line 2 for an address that has one area on the PDF for the street address and another for the city, state, and zip.
