Plus Symbol in Form Field

In Reader 8, a small white plus (+) symbol in a black box appears in the lower right corner of an empty text field when printed. It does not show on screen. The form was created in Acrobat Pro 6 and the white-on-black plus symbol only shows when printed via Reader 8. The plus symbol shows in 7 of 8 text fields with identical properties. The symbols are not present if a value is entered in the field. Does anyone know what the "+" means and how I can remove it? (Both Acrobat Pro 6 and Reader 8 are running on Windows XP.)

Your text field is too small. If the field will hold a lot of text, set its Options for multi line, Scroll long text, or enlarge the text field, or reduce the font size for the text field.
