The only think I can think of is that you have to turn "Preview" off by clicking on the "Edit" button at the top (where it says "Preview" in my screenshot). If that's not the case, can you please post a screenshot of what you see.

Type "Import" into the tool search area in Acrobat DC. This will bring up the correct function to select. You can also Select "Prepare Form", and will then find the "More" menu in the right hand pane.

Prepare forms allows me to select the file, however I do not get a "more" options on the right hand side of my screen. If I continue with the selected file it just creates a pdf of my csv file. Could you perhaps provide a screen shot please. I am following your instruction from 819 days ago "Can I import data from an excel spreadsheet to a fillable PDF". I tested it a version of Adobe Acrobat DC and it worked perfectly, however this new version is not giving me the same prompts. Thanks

Is there a setting I need to turn on to be able to see this, as my screen doesn't show the same as yours? Thanks
