Fields on the master page - NOT saving in Reader!

[Former Community Member]

I have forms that I've setup through Designer 7.1 and enabled through Acrobat 8. I'm currently using Reader 8 to open and fill in the forms. The fields that are on the master page (i.e., "Page ___ of ___" footer) DO NOT save, either in Reader 7 or 8. I can type in my info and it shows up just fine in the PDF preview pane (nothing seems to be blocking it and it is appropriately setup within a subform). I'm hoping this doesn't mean I have to go through all 800+ of my forms and redo what I've already created....

Check the binding tab for the fields. They may not be bound. By default, when you add a field to a master page, it is not bound (i.e. default binding is "none").
