Hi all,

newbie here.

I have a quick question if thats OK?

I have been given a PDF form from someone in another derpartment that they have created for me. On the form are several text areas that can have multiple lines. When I print the form I only get the visible lines that hagve been typed into the area and not all of them, is there anyway that I can print the whole of the text area when print is selected?

Many thanks

Stephen

Not really, The only way you could do this is by expanding the field to the point that it exposes all of the contents. Then what would happen to everything that was after this field? It's not doable in an AcroForm.

However, it is possible, in concept anyway, for a Dynamic LiveCycle Form.
