Acrobat 9 Standard: Field fonts and size

In several fields on a form, data that is entered is not going to the top of the field. There is a significant gap between text and top of field which is wasting space that i need for the multi-line field.
Not sure if it matters ( I am new to Acrobat) but this initial form I did create in Excel and then converted to pdf with Acrobat.

MadAl712,
I finally gave up on it.  That gap between top of field and the first line of text within that field could allow for another line of text.  Lori Kassuba posted a solution that by allowing Rich Text Formatting, the user could format the text as they enter data in such a way that eliminated the gap.  I did not implement this as a solution since I could not see expecting users to go through the motion.
She did mention Acrobat Pro, InDesign, and Designer might help with this. All I have is Acrobat Standard. I would be curious as to how well you like InDesign and how you are using it. I am considering another application (InDesign might be the one) for more design capacities for forms, presentations, and web pages.  So if you get a chance... thanks.

  • How to change the font and size in the fillable field of an encrypted PDF file?

    hi!
    I’d like to change the font and size in the fillable field of an encrypted PDF file I-485 from www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-485.pdf
    I’m using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 in Windows XP. I firstly tried Adobe LiveCycle Designer, but the I-485 file requires password to be opened, which I don’t know.
    Then I tried to print it to a PDF file, and use the Typewriter tool to fill in the form. But got error message while printing it to PDF file:
    This PostScript file was created from an encrypted PDF file.
    Redistilling encrypted PDF is not permitted.
    The I-485 file can be exported to unencrypted postscript file, but got the same error message while trying to open the ps file.
    I don’t know much about pdf file, can anyone please help?
    Thanks a lot!

    Ask the creator of the file for a unprotected version.

  • Firefox not displaying fonts and sizes properly

    In firefox the fonts are not displaying properly they are either bold or small and bold some text is displayed normally but most is not most is either really small or bold. This is also the case for IE, im on windows 7 running latest versions. However Chrome, Opera and Safari all display correct fonts and sizes it is just firefox and IE that are affected. And yes everything from font size to page size is at default so please dont reply with zoom in and out thanks.

    Hey thanks for the reply. Not sure which one of these worked nothing changed until I restarted firefox.
    You can try different default fonts.
    Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced
    [ ] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
    You can also try to disable hardware acceleration.
    Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    But it is back to how it was thank you very much!

  • I am not satisfied with the font and size of print that I set. How do I change it?

    When I first set up Firefox on my desktop, I set the print size and font. I have found that it is too large and I really would like to change the font, also. I can't find a spot to do that. I might be looking right at it but don't realize it. Could you help me?

    I can't remember what I did when I set the font and size of articles that I printed from the pages on Firefox. I just know that I tried something a few months ago and have not been happy with the settings that I made. I can't find anywhere to change those settings and have tried so many things but they do not change the look of the pages I print when I click print. I tried to see if I could change the settings but all it does is change portrait or landscape and margins...nothing about fonts or sizes. I am getting so frustrated even though I love Firefox.

  • Change Font and Size of Graph Annotations

    Just learned a cool little trick from Christina Rogers about how to change the font and size of a graph annotation after I left a comment on her blog (if you are unsure how to create a graph annotation, check LabVIEW Help).
    With the Cursor Legend selected, use the Font Dropdown on the toolbar to select the font you want for the annotation. Apparently, annotation and cursor text on the graph inherit the font of the Cursor Legend. If you do not like how the Cursor Legend looks after you have changed the font, you can make it invisible again (I have never shown the cursor legend in final UI products... and I have never used "Hobo Std" in final UI products...).

  • How do you change the font and size in descriptions in iPhoto?

    When I add a description to a photo in a slide show, it appears in only one font size and one continuous line across the frame.  Is there any way to change the font and size?  Can the description be multiple short lines instead of one long one?

    You can't.  It's hard coded into the application.  You can send a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

  • Font and size

    I can't seem to figure how to change font and size when writing emails.

    Hi earlbonn,
    The easiest way is to open up a new mail pane, then go to View>Customize Toolbar, and drag the Font button to the toolbar. Then it will be available everytime you are composing a new message.
    You MUST open the New mail pane first. It (the Font button) is not available unless you do.
    Good Luck,
    John

  • WHY do we get a %*# update every 2 weeks while the 1 really bad bug (fonts and sizes randomly changing when typing) persists????

    Is there any way to STOP TB from sending updates every couple of weeks (and BTW this has slowed down/crashed TB increasingly in the past couple of months) UNTIL they fix this really irritating bug of randomly changing fonts and sizes when writing a mail? Outlook doesn't do this, Apple mail doesn't do this, so TB stop spamming and start addressing real problems for a change!!!!

    It would be helpful perhaps to focus on "the real issue" of font size and compose, rather to digress into how vendors choose to deliver the product.
    font issues arose in the past year. I forget exactly when. It is quite a bad problem. My recollection is it was a serializer change not done by Thunderbird developers, and that part of it was fixed in version 24. But I could be wrong.
    Would you be willing to try version 31?

  • Mail returned in different font and size

    Hello,
    Sometimes my mails are returned in a different font and size (usually Times 12px) from the default I have set (Arial).
    I know this is a "common" problem but don't know the cause?
    Thanks

    You don't really have control over what font and size is seen by recipients of your emails, and even less over what their mail system does to fonts and sizes when it composes a return.
    The important thing to remember is that Mail > Preferences does not send any font info to the recipient. To do that you must set the font for each message separately in the New Message pane. If the recipient also has html mail enabled, then they will most likely see the font and size you have chosen.

    In 2014, Since I upgraded my OS to Win 7, every time I update Acrobat X Standard I get and error.  The problem seems to be with permissions for folders is there a permanent fix??

    Is there any indication of the specific folder you are having problems with. Are you logged in as the administrator (or the same as when you installed) and have anti-virus disabled during the update? You might also try the updates from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows.
