    Please share the acrobat version you are experiencing this issue with. You can do so using the link -helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/identify-product..

    Also, can you please try it another PDF file and confirm that this is not file specific.

    I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro DC Version 2019.012.20035 and also noticed that the Calculate tab is missing in the Text Field Properties for a form I created today. Using the same Adobe Acrobat Pro DC Version 2019.012.20035 the Calculate tab is in the Text Field Properties for a form I created in Dec 2018.
    Since the Calculate tab is missing for the form I created today I copied the Simplified field notation from the Dec 2018 form and pasted it in the Default Value in the new form. The calculation only works for the inherited text fields and not my new text fields.
    If the Calculate tab is not returning, then I need assistance to figure out why my simple formula isn't working in the Default Value field.
