iPad Pro keeps refreshing (and deleting) while working on a .pdf

Good afternoon Howmander,

Has this PDF form been downloaded to your iPad, or are you trying to fill something out online? Is the issue with Markup happening with just this particular PDF?

It might be helpful for you to speak with an AppleCare technical advisor about this issue. Click the link below, choose the phone number for your region from the list, and call when it is convenient.

Contact Apple for support and service

Take care.

Hello Howmander,

Given that what you're experiencing is unexpected behavior, speaking with an Apple Support Advisor is probably your best option in finding a resolution. You can reach out to them using the link from the previous post, or this one: Get Support.

Best regards.

Greetings Howmander,

Thanks for posting in Apple support Communities. To clarify, are you using a particular app or Markup when trying to add text to the PDF? This resource may be helpful

if you're using Markup: Add typed text, shapes, and signatures with Markup on iPad

If you're using another method, please provide us with those details. Having this information will allow us to determine the next best steps to take.

We look forward to your response.

Take care!
