I am trying to generate certificates of completion with document builder and include the date of conferral. No matter how I enter the date into a date field (my preference is "Friday, January 1, 2021" as the format), it always enters in the 1/1/21 format. Any ideas for getting document builder to fill it correctly?

I figured out a workaround -- if the date is entered in long form in a text column instead of a date column, it populates as entered. Don't know if there is another way to affect the formatting if populating from a date column.

Has there been a fix for this? I am having this same issue. I need a long date format and no matter what I do in smartsheet or in adobe for the settings seems to make a difference.
