| Subject: | Acro Fields not showing up |
I have created a PDF file, and the field is not showing up on the
page. The text shows up as expected. I thought I got everything
in the right place for the AcroForm, but I could be wrong.
Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

Thank you for your help, but could you be a little more
specific, or offer a solution?
The annots array is
/Annots[9 0 R] - which points to and object that holds the
array of annots.
Object that has the annots array
9 0 obj
[4 0 R]
endobj
I've removed the reference to the array, and directly pointed
to the annot, but it still doesn't appear on the screen.
The annot is really a Text Field that is part of the AcroForm.

Annots is not supposed to be an array of arrays, but an array of dictionaries/streams. On this basis the (only) PDF you posted was certainly wrong.

I have made the annots a reference to the array, and still the
field isn't showing up.
Thank you again for your help.

It looks as if you have made the single most common mistake in PDF creation: misspelling Subtype.
