Comment line spacing

Hi Adobe team,
Can you tell me how to get this working on Adobe Reader XI?
I do not know how to explain this. There is a good spacing between the commented lines which makes is easy to read.
I am not able to get that now. What i get when commenting is a big chunk of yellow without the spacing. Very ugly.
How do i get back to commenting like above?

This has to do with the way the area surrounding the text is defined in the file. There's nothing that can be done about it in Reader.
My guess is different applications were used to generate these files, or different fonts, and therefore you're getting different results.

Line spacing in acrobat pro X

forms, made one in Pro X, to be used by someone in Reader
where can I find line spacing capabilities - (form is then enabled to use in Reader) looked all over for hours to find answer and nothing*
set font at Helv 9 point and the line spacing looks as if it is 4 point - very squashed and nor readable at all
how can I fix this????

hi there
In did try that, thanks for pointing out the Ctrl E, but prob still showing as same
tried diff line spacing allowed , diff pont size fonts, diff hard returns, no returns, was always using Helv and finally then tried to set as Times, but when saved and attached to an email, the Times was a sans serif font, and not Helv. hmm, I was hopeful because your solution sounded so logical, but to no avail.'
At one point, I thought maybe Forms is meant to only works with 1 line blocks, but I did see another pdf, where although it didn't accept hard hard returns - it ignores them, but they have the line spacing. The only diff is that in their form, somehow one can access the "sign" part of menu on side where it has 3 options - Tools / Sign / Comment and when one goes to "sign" in their form - it is accessible and a drop down menu comes up with the option of "add text" is available.
In my forms, "sign" isn't available in the 3 options, actually I have 4 (Tools / Sign / Comment / Extended) options that appear at the upper right show up? The menu comes with none of the options available but there is a small yellow box that comes up: The security settings on this document prevent adding text and / or placing a signature on it from Adobe Reader . To sign this document, you need to print it out ? I can't understand this thank you

"Line Spacing" vs. leading

How does "Line Spacing" in static or dynamic text fields
(explicitliy set in the "Formatting Options" window) compare w/
"leading" when creating a text field w/ AS?
Is a "Line Spacing" setting of 10 the same as my_fmt.leading
= 10;?
In a Flash 7 file I'm trying to get the spacing between lines
in an AS-created text field to be closer than default, but it seems
that leading can be a positive value. But if a similar static field
looks good w/ Line Spacing set at 0, why is there no equivalent w/
leading?

To clarify... If the query row is omitted from the
indexed/array notation, then isValid() and <cfparam />
produce different results.
In the attached code example below, the query row was omitted
intentionally to illustrate.
Two possible solutions are:
1) Make isValid() throw an error (so that they both throw an
error)
2) Make <cfparam /> not throw an error (so that they
both do not throw an error)
I feel the behavior should be consistent. Does anyone feel
otherwise? If the behavior should be consistent, then which
solution, or other solution, is preferred?
Let's discuss!
Thanks,

Permanently save line spacing in a multi-line text field

Me: Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro, Windows Vista
(I think the people who will be using the form have Reader 7 on Windows)
I work in a doctors' clinic, and we use phone message sheets to document conversations between the patients/us/nurses/doctors, and I scanned the form and made it into a fillable PDF for our secretaries to fill out more quickly. The "message" area has pre-printed lines on it, and the multi-line text field I placed there needs to match up to the lines. I used the Rich Text Formatting options to set it to "Exactly 24 Points," but I can't get it to KEEP the formatting permanently. The only way I could get it to save the formatting in that field was to put a space in it and then save it, and then give that to the 2 phone secretaries. It works perfectly the first time, but instead of just closing/re-opening the file to start a new message, one of the secretaries highlights everything in the "message" field and deletes it... which deletes the line spacing formatting. I've told her
b numerous
times to leave that starting space in the field, but she "forgets" so all of her messages look messed up. So is there a way to force that line spacing
b PERMANENTLY
???? Here's a shrunken screenshot of the field -- I wish I could just erase the lines altogether so the spacing wouldn't matter, but the secretaries type/print the message out, then the nurses/docs write on the page with pen so the lines have to stay. http://img187.imageshack.us/my.php?image=notepreviewph8.jpg
Thanks!

You can set the font size of the text. Then play with the underlines in the original document to match the needs of the font that is used. Print to a new PDF and then use replace pages to put the new page into the form without changing the form fields. I was able to do this with a word processing document by adding underlining in the document with 12 pt and setting the font to 12 pt in the text field. You can play with the font, the border of the field, and the underlining in the original document to get the desired result. Is this optimal, probably not. However it does the job.

I have "upgraded" from Pages 2.0.2 to Pages 5.5.3 and can no longer customize my line spacing. Does anyone know if there are more than 4 options for line spacing?

Is it possible to customize line spacing in Pages 5.5.3? My previous Pages 2.0.2 allowed me to choose spacing in 0.1 increments, but as far as I can tell Pages 5.5.3 only offers four options. Very limiting for creative documents.

Hi Margaret,
Does this work for you?
And 0.6

How can I change or reduce the line spacing to single in a "multiple lines of text" column in a list?

We keep many logs in a simple list format. One of the columns requires a description using the "multiple lines of text" default column. Sometimes the person making the entry needs to complete about 20-30 lines of text. Users are requesting we reduce
the amount of space advanced between lines to save space and be more concise. Is there a way to reduce the line spacing for the column entries to single spacing without code?

We determined that the site column settings were incorrect for allowing single spacing, we changed the site column setting from "Enhanced rich text (Rich text with pictures, tables, and hyperlinks)" to "Rich text (Bold, italics, text alignment, hyperlinks)"
and it is now keeping the text in single spaced lines.
<label for="onetidRichText">Specify the type of text to allow:</label>

Line Spacing in text field.

Hi,
I have added many text fields to my pdf document. Some of them need following:
1.
Adjust the line spacing between two lines.
2.
Make the text "justified".
I can not find any way to accomplish these things. Can anyone tell me how to do these things?
Thanks,
Vijay

Geo,
Are you talking about check box "Allow Rich Text Formatting" in the Text Field Properties dialog box? I have it checked.
But still it does not give me ability to adjust line spacing or "justify"ing the text.
Thanks,
Vijay

In Notes, I do not have a format bar. Under views there is no option to toggle this feature on or off. How then, can I set line spacing in documents? or is there some trick to getting the format bar that they say exists?

I want to be able to adjust line spacing in the Notes program. The help menu says that there is format bar and that I can choose this spacing. I do not have a format bar. They said that you can toggle this on and off under the View menu. I have not option in my dropdown that gives me an option to show or hide the format bar. Is there a reason why my version does not seem to have this feature?

Sorry for the wishy washy response but potential YES and possibly NO. Your user data should be intact but the OS may not be able to boot. You have a backup?

Pages 5: Spacing between bullets (not line spacing)

How can I control the spacing between bullets?
1. I clearly see how to control the spacing around a bullet relevant to its text. That's not what I'm referring to.
2. I clearly see how to set line spacing. That's not what I'm referring to.
What I'd like to do is keep a line spacing of 1.0 on the text, but add padding between list items (between bulleted content). The method in Pages '09 was to add buffer space "after the paragraph" (or before). However, in Pages 5.0 this option does not exist. Some of my bullets have enough content that wraps, which is why line spacing is not an acceptable solution.
How can I control spacing between bulleted list items, such that each chunk of content is better separated?
Thank you!

Silly me. I have located it, by expanding the Spacing menu. The control I'm looking for is right there.
I've included a screencap, in case anyone else misses the obvious like I have. Thanks for looking!

Can you change the line spacing in the legend?

Is there a way to change the line spacing in the legend? I have a pie chart with text and I can't change the line spacing for its legend like you would in a regular text. Is there a way to change it?

For space between each line, use the leading value in the Character pallet. For space between paragraphs, use the Space Before or Space After values in the Paragraph pallet.

How do I change line spacing in a Mail signature? Where's the formatting menu?

I want to reduce double-spacing in my Mail signature to single spacing so it's more compact and doesn't take up all kinds of vertical space (more than the email itself--I've had recipients complain about this--and it's a business email). I have a logo (.png) in the signature that I've been using with no problem. I have text above and below the logo. It's just too widely spaced. Surely there must be a formatting menu that I can use to shrink the line spacing in Mail Signatures? Or elsewhere, then reimport and have the formatting stick? This is a pretty basic feature for an email client to offer. Is there a simple solution to this?

Dynamic Text line spacing issue

Hi, in my Flash movie (CS3) I want all text to be selectable.
When I select 'static' and 'selectable', I have the following issues:
- Some of the text does not fit into the available (scrolling required to see the end of text)
- This is larger than when in Flash.
When I use 'dynamic' text, I have the following issues:
- The line spacing displays different in the exported swf than it does in Flash (line spacing is much greater in the swf)
- I am a designer so the appearance / positioning of the text is crucial
Is this common?
Is there any way to make the text in Flash and swf appear consistent?
Many thanks

First of all, maybe you don't know it, but static text can't be made selectable even in theory. Therefore what you're seeing when you click "Selectable" option, is a dynamic text. As for line spacing, I don't see any difference between Flash CS4 and resulting SWF. The only strange thing I've found is the necessarity to enlarge the bounding rectangle when I change the text type from static to dynamic. Otherwise bottom line of text just disappears. It looks like a bug. Also I don't see "Autosize" option being working here in CS4. I doubleclick on bottom right corner of the text block, small square is transformed into a diamond, and bounding rect is "autosized" around the text block. But the bottom text line disappears just as I deselect the text object. All it looks some stange...

AutoSize not working properly in TextField when using non-zero line spacing

When using non-zero line spacing, the autoSize property is not functioning as expected, causing text fields to scroll that shouldn't. Also, when using device fonts, the sizes of the TextFields are wrong in the Flash IDE.
I have a TextField whose height is supposed to be dynamic, depending the width of the TextField. wordWrap is true, the text is left aligned, and the autoSize value is flash.text.TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT.
When the TextField's width is adjusted, the height increases or decreases as expected, but when I scroll the mouse wheel over the TextField, it allows a single line to scroll out of view. This should not be happening. The autoSize property should ensure the TextField is large enough to neither require nor allow scrolling.
Has anyone else encountered this issue or know how to fix it?
Update: Been a problem since at least 2006! > http://blog.nthsense.net/?p=46
http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?288955-Disabling-textfield-scrolling   Bug is caused by using a line height ("line spacing" in Flash) larger than zero, for example 1.0pt. It looks like when I reduce the line spacing of the text field to zero, the issue goes away. There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with how autoSize is calculating the required height of the text (i.e. it is exactly textHeight + 4 pixel gutter, and drawing the rectangle (2,2,textWidth,textHeight) aligns visually with the text), so it must have to do with how the TextField is deciding whether it needs to scroll or not, and that separate calculation is being thrown off by the non-zero line spacing. The additional non-zero spacing at the end of the last line could be making the TextField think it needs to scroll, even though it's hight is sufficient at "textHeight + 4". Apparently the problem manifests when using a non-zero leading value as well.
In fact, it has to be related to the leading value exactly, since the following code stops the textfield from scrolling.
//body is TextField
var tlm:TextLineMetrics = body.getLineMetrics(body.numLines - 1);
trace(tlm.leading); //traces "1" here. traces zero when line spacing is zero, and traces larger values with larger line spacing values
body.autoSize = flash.text.TextFieldAutoSize.NONE; //turn off autosize so the height can be set manually
body.height += tlm.leading; //increase height of textfield by leading value of last line to cause scrolling to be turned off.
Honestly, this is pretty unacceptable bug. First of all, scrolling should not be sensitive to trailing line spacing, because autoSize and textHeight do not include it. It need to be consistent, and I think textHeight and autoSize setting height = textHeight + 4 is correct. Vertical scrolling should use textHeight as it's guage for whether scrolling is necessary, but instead, it's obviously involving the leading values of the last line. At the very least, vertical scrolling should simply be disabled when autoSize is turned on and wordWrap is true, because the TextField should be big enough to fit all the text. The workaround of manually adjusting the height is also no good, since turning autoSize back on will immediately change the size back and trigger scrolling again. I also shouldn't have to set line spacing to zero just to use the autoSize feature, since the scrolling calculations are wrong in this way.

No, lol. Luckly, I replace most of my TextFields on the display list with my subclass TextFieldEx. I just call a clone method that accepts a TextField and returns a TextFieldEx with identical properties.
I corrected the problem via modifying the subclass to behave differently when autoSize is not NONE and wordWrap is true. Under those conditions, the maxScrollV and scrollV property values are fixed at 1, and the class listens for its own SCROLL event and sets scrollV to 1 when it occurs. That allows me to leave everything else alone, including text selection, and use whatever line spacing I want.
The modification seems to work fine so far.
For anyone interested in doing something similar, here is a clone method that will copy a TextField.
public static function clone( t:TextField ):TextFieldEx
                              var te:TextFieldEx = create( "", t.width, t.type, t.multiline, t.wordWrap, t.selectable, t.embedFonts, t.defaultTextFormat );

How can I control the line spacing in TLF

Hello,
Is it possible to control the line spacing in TLF?
For example I might have text lines with font size of 12 (i.e. constant text height) but I would like to be able to change the space between the lines programatically.
Playing with the lineHeight property is not the best approach because in case there are images embedded in the text once lineHeight is set then the image is cut if it is higher than the line height. I really need to control the space between lines but not the lines' height.
Thanks

I would like to achieve the following behavior: the gap between all text lines to be always X pixels.
My understanding how TLF handles this (please correct me if I am wrong) is that there is no gap between TextLines but one could achieve similar behavior by playing with lineHeigh. You could set it to a percentage and then this would introduce visual gap between text lines however in cases when a text line contains elements with different height (like the case with images or spans with different fontSize) then the gap will differ because it is calculated as a percentage of the overall fontSize. I don't want to have different gaps in these cases. I would like to have always (let's say) 10 pixels between each text line.
What I need is very similar to the "verticalGap" style available in the VBox container. I would like to specify the exact gap between each text line in exactly the same way.
Using "lineHeight" is not good because it depends on the height of the text/images and this leads to different gaps when I have mixture of elements with different heights. The way I set the gap should not be dependent on the height of the elements.
