Aligning text /-checkboxes for survey form

I am designing a form/survey questionnaire that should be printed.

The general provision with all my questions/options is made, but I do not understand how to align everything to the top neatly. I use the TAB key for this, but things are not good when the next line has more options, or if the text is more long/plus short.

What do you suggest to me that I do?

For the 'checkbox' I use a special character in a font, but it is not quite the size I need, and then resizing of the text on the same line (which is a different font) gets messed up. Is there a better way to make a box like that and repeated it several times (for all my questions) without too much noise?

Some examples of this kind of outcome I'm looking for (although I am very open for even more suggestions):

Pacakging your Mac flavored Helvetica is look really nice in that file, but no absolutely nothing good for installation on the PC, unless it is an OpenType font. PC don't see the range of resources for Mac TT or T1 fonts where the police thactual information is stored. You must embed fonts in the PDF file.

Jongware suggestion for the use of text scaling is good. If you want to use the rectangles drawn, stick them inline, then use a fixed leading instead of auto value.

    I really need help on this one, I am a complete newbie...

    Note that the second tax is calculated on the sum of what the first tax Add (tax first is pan-Canadian tax (all provinces).

    The second tax is never only use (Quebec only (in addition to one Canadian)

    Sometimes to sell outside Canada - no tax at all is calculated...

  • How can can add text fields in the form automatically pdf document?

    I use Adobe Acrobat X (10.1.3) installed on Windows 7 to create pdf forms. My document is very similar to a "lined paper A4 notebook.

    I want to add the text field for each row of lined notebook, so people will be able to write what they want line by line.

    As my document has 20 lines in each page, and a total of 64 pages, I won't add these fields one by one. (drawing of rectangles with precision and aligning each other, assigning separate 'field name' to ensure solid mounting.)

    Property 'Set the Multiple field' within the right - click cause misalignment during 5-6 lines statement on the other.

    You have any suggestions or work around I can receive?

    See Doc.addField. If there is a model for the positions lines on each page, then you can generate the positions in JavaScript and use Doc.addField to set the text fields.

  • Several checkboxes in a form

    I'm putting a small group of checkboxes in a form here-> www.hollisterairshow.com/helpusplan.php using the spry validation

    The form is for an air show and we ask visitors to the site, what day you're planning to come - Saturday, Sunday or "Saturday and Sunday. They must select a day and can select both. I use MySQL to store the results and have set up a table with multiple columns, those of this issue is called "Saturday" and "Sunday". If the site visitor selects Saturday, then the Saturday column should be 'Saturday' and that if they choose Sunday then Sunday column should "Sunday." When a column is selected not the content must be Null. When I test here is the result:

    The user selects Contents of column 'Saturday' Content of column "Sunday"
    Saturday only'on '.'on '.
    Sunday only"Sunday.""Sunday."
    Saturday and Sunday"Sunday.""Sunday."

    The code is shown below

    < p align = "left" > what days do you visit?

    < span id = "sprycheckbox1" >
    < label >
    < input type = "checkbox" name = "whichdays" id = "whichdays_0" / > Saturday

  • How do you multiline text in a continuous form between the lines without scaling of the text?

    Help. How do you multiline text in a continuous form between the lines without scaling of the text?

    I tried to put each line of the form for amounts of specificity so that it ends at some point and does not change the text size to fit on the line but different key characters have different widths, so you do not get a length of the same line.

    I tried to remove the long text scrolling, but it changed nothing.

    I can create a text box great to fill out and have this scrolling of additional lines, but then I get too much information from people and I would need to clarify the lines behind the answer multi line text, or delete the lines...

    Is there a better solution?

    I usually just remove the lines and set the field "Does not scroll long text" so that all the text is visible. Including the lines is really only useful if the form may be printed and completed by hand, in which case you can use scripts as in this example is: http://acroscript.net/pdf/demos/multiLine_Demo1.pdf

    It works as expected in Acrobat/Reader, but not in Chrome and other PDF viewers who have little or no support for JavaScript. It uses scripts customized to validate on Focus and blur.

  • I used him copy / paste to add several checkboxes on my form, but now in preview mode when I check the first box it automatically checks all the boxes.  How can I stop this from happening?

    I used him copy / paste to add several checkboxes on my form, but now in preview mode when I check the first box it automatically checks all the boxes.  How can I stop this from happening?

    For later use, it happened because your fields have the same field name, and fields with the same name automatically have the same value.

    So all you had to do was so each had a unique name and it would have worked, but using the command create several fields is preferable because it renames the fields for rename you them.

  • What is appropriate to use for ToolTips form?

    I'm familiar with tagging of PDF documents for accessibility, have some experiments with the properties and fields of the form, but little experience accessibility of forms.

    My question is not technical, the tags are beautiful and fields are there properly. My question has to do with how much information should be included in the ToolTips. All of the examples I've seen have short text of the question, for example, "first name:" followed by a text field with a ToolTip like "Enter the last name (required)."

    But what about questionnaires, where a long (e.g., 3 sentences) question is followed by a text field for the answer? What kind of ToolTip should be the text field? Should he repeat the question? Or just something like "type your response here?

    Or, say, a long question followed by a numbered list of items, each a long sentence with a yes / no radio no button group. What kind of ToolTip should have radio buttons?

    I understand setting up the "Radio button choice" under the tab 'Options', this issue is all that must be included in the 'Tooltip' field under the 'Général' tab

    Thank you.

    ToolTips, if used, would be a brief description of the data to be entered in the field. It would not need to be the whole investigation. We could leave blank or us something like "select an Item."

  • I created a pdf form to a Word doc with the air police 9 pt formatted; the text on the pdf form is air 9 pt, but the fields are formatted in courier 12 pt - how can I reformat the police in the fields?

    I created a pdf form to a Word doc with the air police 9 pt formatted; the text on the pdf form is air 9 pt, but the fields are formatted in courier 12 pt - how can I reformat the police in the fields?

    Edit the form fields so that they use Helvetica by 9 points. Do not set the Arial font. Acrobat/Reader will use a private version of Arial as a substitute for Helvetica. If you specify Arial, it will integrate the entire police (sometimes several times), makes that increase the file size unnecessarily.
