      To add a custom field, follow these steps:

      1. Go to the PDF Mapping homepage, then select and open the mapped PDF that you would like to edit.
      2. On the left-hand sidebar, open the Custom Fields panel, then open the PDF Field Generators panel.
      3. Click one of the field types (text, dropdown, checkbox, or radio) to select it, then move your cursor to the PDF and click again to add the new custom field.
      4. Before closing the field properties modal, enter a custom Form Field Name.
      5. Click anywhere on the PDF to confirm the new field addition, then click Save.
