Hello, Im a new user and am incorporating text fields into an already existing PDF file.

So far LiveCycle has been somewhat intuitive and I can get the fields where I want and with Rich text available to my end user.

However, I cant seem to get the text to align to the top of a vertical shaped text field. [mimicing a graphic layout text box]. Instead when the end user types into the field, it starts in the middle of the text box and then wrapping lines begin to move the text up.

Anyone know if its possible to set the text to align to the TOP of the text field and then move down?

Advice & suggestions are appreciated!
