I would like to place directions within a field which are viewable to the user to assist with how to complete the field but will disappear as the answers are entered. ie., “Use last name only” “insert all details” etc. Is this possible with Adobe Acrobat DC?

I need to create a form with a hidden field where an agent can insert their photo. I have Acrobat X Pro. Is this possible with this version of Acrobat, and if so, how would I do it?
