Gosh, that's such an outdated program! Can't create an accessible anything
with it. Encourage your designer to upgrade to the latest version of Adobe
Creative Suite, CC:2018 at this time.

Quote: " Some of the forms I work with require "dynamic" form properties
because users are asked to insert additional rows of data and the form
expands in length to allow for additional rows as needed. I wonder if
InDesign can accommodate "dynamic" forms as well as "static" ones? "

Not at this time; that kind of programming to make the form dynamic requires
scripting, which can be done in Acrobat but not in InDesign. I'm hoping we
can have that capability eventually built into InDesign, but I'm not in
control of what Adobe does. I can only ask and request features at
www.InDesign.UserVoice.com
