Redlining in AcroForm

Is it possible to redline text in the form fields of an Acrobat form? As far as I can tell it's impossible in a LiveCycle Designer form.
 
My users want to be able to put in text from a document and show what's being changed via redlining.
 
With my tests so far, the commenting features don't work inside the form field. Is that accurate?
 
Thanks,
SLDC

If you set up the field to allow rich text formatting, it's possible. The user can display the Properties bar by hitting Ctrl+E and they can select text in a field and then select strikethrough.

It works, and in LiveCycle Designer as well! Thanks very much.
