Fonts in forms

Post by CWBillow »

I have a PDF form that was sent to me, and one of the fields, when I fill it in, cuts off the text.

The margins on the form look to be at least 1".

Is there a way to either shrink the font (maybe only for that field) or shrink the margins so it won't cut off?

Hopefully,
Chuck Billow

Hi CWBillow,

can you post the form here for us to look at? Or send it to support@pdf-xchange.com if you'd rather keep it private.

thanks
Best regards

Hello Chuck,

Unfortunately you can not edit those font fields or change the font or length of the fields, but if you want you can use the typewriter tool and write above the field - yes not the most elegant solution but will allow you to make the text as small as you want.

Best,
Stefan
