I think you need to add the fields as "Form Controls", e.g. Insert > 
Form Control > Text Box. This might also avoid your other issue with 
being able to protect the document but allow the fields to be modified.


Then, when you export the PDF, make sure the "Create PDF form" option is 
selected on the "General" tab.

[anne-ology]

   Click on the menu options ... scroll to 'save as' (if you wish it
saved on your machine)
  or 'send as' ->then your e-program should open ...
 if it doesn't, then open your e-program & either send the document
or the link to the document (if uploaded to one of these 'clouds' for that
purpose) to whomever.

I've just posted a message about document protection.

After I've got the document protection the way I wish, how do I export that
document as a PDF and retain the ability to have the fill in fields?
