Every time Edge is updated, the built-in PDF viewer breaks some functions of USCIS fillable PDF forms.

(https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-485.pdf)

This issue occurs every time Microsoft Edge receives an update. After updating to Microsoft Edge Version 150.0.4078.48, the following problems occur:

  • The Text Box button becomes disabled and cannot be used.
  • The Signature button becomes disabled and cannot be used.
  • The Save button becomes disabled and cannot be used.
  • "Powered by Adobe Acrobat" suddenly appears.

    Hi,

    Could you specify which text boxes are disabled on your end? After reviewing the PDF, it seems that some fields are intentionally disabled, while only the enabled fields are meant to be completed.

    As for the Save button being unavailable, you'll need to download the PDF first. Since you're viewing the file directly from the website, you cannot overwrite the original file. To save a copy, simply press Ctrl + S and choose your preferred save location. Once you open the downloaded PDF, the Save As option will be available.

    Also, please be aware that the PDF viewer in Microsoft Edge has long been powered by Adobe, starting with Edge version 141.
