Setting font style and size

I have created a form in Acrobat 9 Pro with multiple text fields for which I would like to make sure only a certain font style & size is used (e.g., Arial 10). I have set this in the properties of the text box, but when I test it by cutting and pasting from a Word document (which our applicants are likely to do), it keeps the original formatting and does not follow the settings I created. Is there a way to allow the cutting and pasting, but only into the settings I've made?
Thanks for any help!

Probably. Try doing the same with the field that doesn't have this setting
turned on, and you'll know for sure...

    creating form - want to adjust font style and size in more than one field at a time - HOW??

    Select the fields with the mouse, right-click one of them, go to Properties
    and set the settings you'd like them all to have.

  • Email font style and size

    Lately my email font style and size setting will not save.  I have to keep setting them each time I type an email. I do not want to use the default style and size. Why is this not working even though I follow the suggested instructions in the Settings area? Thank you.

    I have the same problem as kakingsbury. THIS IS A SUDDEN PROBLEM WITH VERIZON EMAIL. PLEASE SEND A FIX TO YOUR USERS, VERIZON!
    Recipients of my email (browser is Chrome) cannot read it because though I send it in 12 font, they receive it in "too small to read" font even when I change the size to 16. Tried changing from RTF to plain text but since the New Verizon email does not allow email in plain text it automatically adjusts back to RTF. 
    Tried changing the settings in Chrome Advanced settings then logging out and closing browser. Seems to work. Not sure if recipients will be able to read it.

  • Is it possible to change the font style and size of the front panel title?

    Can you change the style and size of the Front Panel Window title?  I seem to have no luck.  I seem to be stuck with only 1 font/style.  I would like to use a superscript for 1 of the letters in the title.  Is this possible?  If it isn't this would be a nice feature to have in the future.  I am using LabVIEW 8.5.1.

    Things like the window title font is a function of Windows - not LV. You can change it globally, but not on a window by window basis.

  • Set default font type and size in formcreated using Acrobat X Pro

    I have a word document that I used Acrobat X Pro to create a PDF and then a Form.  The Form has over 200 text fields.  Is there a way to globally set the font type and size to one type, for instance Arial 10 so that when someone opens the Form and fills it in, the global font type and size is preset         

    Are you talking about fields that you create manually or field created with the Form Wizard? Exactly what version of Acrobat are you using? What OS?
    In any case, using a script is a quick and easy approach:
    for (var i = 0; i < numFields; i++) {
        var fName = getNthFieldName(i);
        var f = getField(fName);
        if (f.type === "text") {
            f.textFont = font.Times;
            f.textSize = 9;
            // Other properties go here
    I use this type of thing all the time to quickly alter a form. Such a script isn't added anywhere, just executed (e.g., JavaScript console). Over time a developer can build up a collection of utility scripts that can do all sorts of things to dramatically speed up development. It would be bad if this option were not available.
    If there is a bug, it should certainly be addressed, so don't think I'm arguing against that, but I'm not seeing it on any of my systems. I can successfully set the default field properties by selecting "Use Current Properties as New Defaults". The Form Wizard does not use these defaults, but that's a different matter.

  • Modifying Java font type and size

    Hi! I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this but I might as well try. I play a lot of Yahoo Chess which uses a java software to launch its program. I'm a new Macbook user and before when I was in Windows/PC, the font type and size setting was okay. Now I barely can read the font whenever I launch Yahoo Chess (using Java) in my Macbook.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Hi,
    Which font and font size did you use in your applet? Do you have sample code that could demonstrate the problem? This may have to do with the difference in font aliasing between MS VM and Sun JVM.

  • Add font types and sizes to ICWC HTML e-mail editor

    Hi,
    I'm working with ICWC e-mail component and I'm wonder to know how can I add more font types and sizes to HTML e-mail editor. At the moment i just have 5 font types and a few font sizes.
    Thanks a lot in advance,
    Nuno Moreira

    Hello Nuno,
    Just try this:
    First you have to upload your .ttf font by using se73 transaction.
    Then you must map it, using this tables:
    SAP: TBTFFONTMAPDEF
    Customer: TBTFFONTMAP
    Just add a line in customer table TBTFFONTMAP with your font (or existing one), and the language that will be used by the users (It accepts wildcard * for all languages)
    And it's done.
    Best Regards,
    Bruno

  • FAQ: How do I clear out my font cache to fix font style and duplicate font style issues?

    We have a Script availabe for CS6 beta users who are experiencing particular font related issues.
    This script will help by clearing the font cache and will test for corrupted fonts.
    This will solve some of the type issues with duplicate font names and some of the other font errors.
    This script is to help to find corrupted fonts. The script itself doesn’t solve the problem.
    This script doesn’t solve duplicate font name, but clears out your font cach .  It it will solve some duplicate font style name issues such as the one  in the link below.
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4306828#4306828
    There is a pdf file explaining how to use the script and what it will do.

    Monica, I know the Normal Character Style in Illustrator must be defined. But my question is about the Normal Paragraph Style, not the Normal Character Style. As Larry just said, in most of my documents, and in my New Document Profiles, these fields in the Normal Paragraph Style are blank (undefined), so I know this is possible. In a few older documents I'm converting, the Normal Paragraph Style has a defunct font, and even though my Normal Character Style is correctly defined with the current font, it's creating some weird behavior.
    Larry, it doesn't appear to be the document itself, it just appears to be not knowing what the right keystroke combo is to clear it. Just make a new file from a Document Profile where the Normal Paragraph Style does not define one of those font fields, define a font and/or font size, save, then reopen the paragraph style settings and try to clear any field that has been set. I can't clear it, I can only change the font.

  • Font style an size

    Is there  a way of changing text styles an sizes on when sending mails???

    You can't change the actual font, or the size, but you can add Bold, Underline and Italics by first selecting a peice of text (tap and hold). You can also increase (or decrease) the indent.

  • How do I adjust type style and size?

    Don't know where to find type style.

    Kathleen your question is very brief... I am not sure if you want to change your font on your email client/or word document or Mozilla page?etc..
    Here are some suggestions... if you want to change the size of your screen in Mozilla goto view up the top menu bar and use Zoom options. I find this very handy in some board games on FB etc..
    Now on your email client you should have two drop down boxes on the Left hand side which show Text size e.g 12 etc and along side of this a Font option (mine is on Arial).. use the drop down menu to change the Font and sizes of your text.
    This will revert back to your regular size/font when you create another email or Word document. I am sure there are settings to change if you want to make other Fonts/Sizes permanent in the options etc but better to setup each time you do a new message..
    If you do not have the drop down boxes in Word you might have that hidden. Goto view and use print layout on left hand side (in word 2007)..then go home on the same menu bar and your font and size drop downs will be shown.
    Another handy trick to change sizes of your screen is to press Ctrl ++ to increase size of your screen and Ctrl 0 to bring back to normal size screen.. This is very useful on the net when you have hard to read text or want to change your screen size for FB games etc..
    Best of luck and will keep an eye on your thread.

  • Is it possible to change the font name and size without having to compile?

    Dear All
    We have one requirement that we need to change the font name and font size at run time dynamically without having to compile all the forms in 6i.
    Is there any way or work around to achieve the same.Kindly suggest us.
    something like using uifont.ali or forms60_defaultfont, or set_item_property
    Thanks and Regards

    Dear All,
    Thanks for your updates, Technically what both of you said is correct. but in application server we used something like ClientDPI to match the client server font with the application server, i need to know that is there anyother way something like this...?
    I have read one document(Note:28397.1 in metalink) saying that using uifont.ali file we can change the font at run time, but i have used this only for report
