When I create a form field in Acrobat 8, I do not have the option to "Size". If I right click and choose "size", all option are grayed out. Can someone tell me what is wrong?

Hi luxor,

The Right Click "Size" option is used for selecting multiple form fields of the same type (made with the same form tool such as button, text field, etc) and making them all the same height, width, or both. When only one field is selected those options are not available (greyed out).
To resize an individual form field, select it by either activating the form tool used to create it from the toolbar, or clicking on the Select Object tool (this selects all field types), then use the handles on the field (top, bottom, left or right side) to drag the field to the size you want. To reposition the whole field to a different location on the page click anywhere inside the field and drag it to the new location.

Hope that helps,

Dimitri
