Wrap the text in the form field

I created a PHP form in DW MX04/Win XP SP2 by using a script of form... One of the fields is a multi line text field where the user can enter a resume or type information. When something is pasted (for example a CV) into the input box encapsulates the input and the input box does not overflow and create a horizontal scrolling. However, when something is typed in, the information continues in a single line and a horizontal scroll bar appears. Is it possible to limit the width of the entrance and do a 'carriage return' on the right edge of the input box? I tried all settings to wrap in the property inspector, but none of them do.

TIA

Thank you Gary. I found out what the problem was/is. As a test I was now the key 'A' and let it repeat. In doing so he continued on a single line and created a scroll bar. However, if I type a 'normal' sentence, it wraps at the end of the box. Because I don't think that anyone will enter a long uninterrupted string, it shouldn't be a problem.

  • Adjust the text in the form field

    How do you shrink to fit the text in the form field when you fill in a document?

    I use reader XI.

    This document is a form of Government and a protection on it, if it's important.

    It is mainly for the purpose of printing and using the paper document. When you print from the field cut the text and it is impossible to read the entirty of the field.

    Thank you

  • Forms to fill out and Distribution: to flatten author text but not the form fields

    OK people, first time posting on this forum, but certainly not my first time looking for answers!  I was quite managed with other issues if I think I myself stumped on this one.

    I created the form fillable 'generic' I'm going to use to distribute to various contacts for some upcoming projects that we will participate in.  Because each project will be different, instead of having to create a new form every time, I hope that with my base model form I can enter various information with the type writing tool and somehow to protect this information to be edit/delete while allowing my contacts to enter their information in the form fields.

    I tried to apply the different variants of security features, but the downside of this is that it does not "distribute" my form so that it can be track with Adobe Tracker.  The only way I can successfully distribute this form for the masses and track responses is if all the security settings of the document are disabled.

    I hope that this logic all how I explain it.  Because the information (not the form fields) on the document sent to the changes each week, I was hoping there would be one easier way other than creating a form to complete for each new.  I'm not an expert of Actions, but it would be possible to create an Action that would "flatten" the text of the type writer only?  That would at least prevent third parties to manipulate or remove information that I placed on the document.

    This free tool based on JavaScript for Acrobat is what you need: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

    The typewriter tool creates a type of text box, so that you would select just this box to flatten.

  • Is it possible to delete the default text in a form field onclick?

    I am trying to add javascript to clear the default text in a form field using onclick?  Any idea?

    Thank you!

    Rather than enter a default text in the field, get rid of any script, you have for the field and use the following custom format script:

    Custom Format script

    If (! event.value) event.value = "your default text goes here.";

    The string that you specify here will be displayed when the field is empty and the text that is entered in the fields, in the opposite case. It will also disappear when the field is selected, which is what you want.

  • Replace the text in the form field with javascript

    Hello

    I am trying to replace an existing text in a form field, if a user enters a number.  For example, during the validation of required fields, Adobe does not accept "0" as a valid entry.  My users regularly enter '0', and it must be valid.  I noticed that if you enter "0.001 ', he admits that, but still the poster ' 0.00' (I'm only show 2 decimal places, so it's OK)."

    My problem is that I can not find the syntax to have the ' 0.00' replaced by a "0.001' by the system."

    I would be very happy for any input!

    Thank you!

    Try the following script:

    var requiredFields = [], error = "";
    
    for (var i = 0; i < numFields; i++) {
    
        var fName = getNthFieldName(i);
        var f = getField(fName);
    
        if (f.type !== "button" && f.required && !f.valueAsString) {
            requiredFields.push(fName);
            error += fName + "\r";
        }
    }
    
    if (error) {
        app.alert("Please complete the following fields: \r\r" + error, 3);
        getField(requiredFields[0]).setFocus();
    } else {
        print();
    }

  • All the form fields do not paste from one file to another

    I use Adobe Acrobat DC on OS 10.10.3.

    One machine I can copy the form fields and put in a new .pdf file and it works fine, but on any other machine, I tried it on it is not. On the other machines when I copy the fields of the form about 75 percent of stick them in the new .pdf.

  • Small opaque text behind the text in the form field

    When I type in the few fields on this application , namely in the children's section, on the first page and the section on the second generation something strange happens. When you type in the field, it works; However, it reflects the exact text BEHIND the text in the normal field. This text in mirror is small and opaque, but there nonetheless. When you print on demand, the whole area looks like jibberish due 2 texts that overlap. Any help would be great, thanks!

    For some reason, all the fields child, spouse's name # and Date of birth in this file are double, one on the other. And since they have the same names, their values are replicated, which is the strange shadow effect that you see.

    This occurs with other areas as well as in the file, but not with them.
