I want to email a form letter with text form fields. I need to find a way to
make the form fields not show up grey so my clients don't see them.
 
When you design your form you can click on the form field shading icon on the
forms field toolbar. It looks like an "a" that is filled in. You can then
protect the document and your clients wont see the shading. If the document
is protected you need to unprotect it before making these changes.

The purpose of the shading is so that it can quickly be identifed as fields
they want to respond to. The shading, however, doesn't print.
 
Turn off field shading using the appropriate button on the Forms toolbar.
