Default How do I set up a fill-in form to allow edits of a portion?

I need to create a medical form that will allow checkboxes and drop downs.
It will also include a photograph of a skeleton that the doctor wants to be
able to draw a line to and insert text over certain parts of the diagram.
How can I develop the form so that it allows you to insert text over the
diagram?

Hi Sonja,

You can insert Section breaks either side of the editable portion, then protect all except that Section (via Tools|Protect Document
Forms Sections).

Ok, now my issue is that this document has two columns and when I insert a
continuous section break it moves the information above it to the new column.
The section break creates only one column. I need for the information to
remain in column one. How do I do this?

Hi Sonja,

I don't think that's possible.
