I was wondering if there is a solution to this problem? On many interactive forms with comboboxes, the little down arrow to drop down the list will stay displayed even when you were done with it and, in fact, the arrows print when you print the PDF.
Confusingly, I didn't used to have this issue with Foxit - it used to be that when you clicked on the field, the combobox would appear, but when you clicked away it disappeared and just left the value. It would also print correctly. Annoyingly, this problem only started occuring when I updated to version 2.2 - I had been used to it working properly. I also didn't used to have to select "document and annotations" when saving an editable PDF, it'd just save the whole thing by default, but again that changed after I updated. Now sometimes on the same form I'll have a list of values, some of which have dropdown arrows printing next to them, some which won't, so I can tell which values I edited before and after updating Foxit. :)
Seems to be a pretty common problem - back when I used to use Adobe, I'd ask my friends "How come those arrows print on your PDFs?" and they'd say "Oh, that's cause we use Foxit..." Is there is a solution already known?
