Paragraph properties not working
I'm creating a form from a document that has preset lines that I would like to mimic with text fields. To do that I would need to increase the text line spacing. If I select the text in the form field, it will show text properties and paragraph options, but they can't be changed. Is that not allowed in Editor Plus, version 11.0.1?

Re: Paragraph properties not working
Hello, GRB
This is not an error, but the intended functionality of Form fields - text and font management functions are not supposed to be accessible when "filling" the form (and this is why we grey them out), instead they must be preset by the creator of the form using the form creation tools specifically.
Please enable the "select fields" tool, from the Form tab, and then select one of these fields, you will see some text customization options are presented in the properties pane, using Ctrl_~ The options offered here are those defined by the PDF Specification, so there is very little if anything we can change or offer more, without risking damage or data loss in your files. Please do try to make the most of what is available here!
Kind regards,
