I am trying to create a fillable form to use as a contract template in my office. Currently, I have placeholders in an odt file but sometimes people will try to change the wording that the attorney has approved and that cannot continue. My solution was to switch the placeholders to form fields and convert the documents from odt to pdf.
Every time I draw a text field on the document it has a very dark background and white text. I bring up the control to switch this to a white background with black text. I get a white background with white or invisible text. I tried converting to pdf in spite of the field thinking maybe it was just a display setting from the dark theme I use. But no, even after conversion shows white text and a black box, or white text and a white box only. I don’t know what I am doing wrong.
I am using Libre Office 7.3.1.3 from Flatpak on Linux Mint 20.3 CInnamon
Thank You
