Question I am using Adobe Acrobat 5.0 to create forms. I have done this successfully before, but now whenever I create the textbox, it automatically creates it a certain height (approx 1/4") larger than what I want. I used to be able to create it any height I wanted. I can increase the size, but it won't let me decrease the size. So when I go to create a textbox on a line, the box goes below the line automatically and I can't resize it. How can I correct this?
Answer Dianne,
Perhaps it won't let you resize it because of the text size setting for that box. For example, if the text size is set to 14pt. it won't let you reduce the height of the box smaller than the heigh of a 14pt character. Check out the properties of your box and see what it is.
