    This is frustrating when editing texts in Acrobat. Yes, I have updated to the latest Adobe Acrobat and the latest mac osx. And still flickers even when I unchecked all the suggested fields. Any real solutions yet? Every time I type ONE letter, it flickers.

    Has there been a solution reached? This bug is debilitating and is forcing us to go to other program solutions to create a form fillable PDF. Running macOS Big Sur 11.7 on Intel Core i9 running Adobe Acrobat Pro on version 2022.003.20281.

    Please update this thread, the issue was escalated Jan 27th, it has been almost 8 months to find a resolution and is still an issue. This is critical for businesses that use your product for forms with clients. Revert back to a version that works, something rather than leave paying customer hanging for this long.

    This is affecting me on mission critical documents 2-3 times per week right now. Need a fix ASAP.

    This is a huge ongoing problem and is affecting a lot of people. Check out this thread: https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/pdf-fillable-forms-are-blinking-non-stop/td-p/12395945

    This is happening on our work Mac computers and we rely on fillable Acrobat forms for a big part of our business. This is for both Acrobat pro and Reader. This needs to be fixed soon.

    This issue needs to be fixed. Paying $180 for a known issue that continues to be ignored is unacceptable. Adobe, I can be contacted and am willing to work with you on this issue. I along with a ton of other customers are here to get this issue resolved.
