Hi, I have this idea to create mail label form. Is it possible to have a few buttons that would resize the columns and rows while user enters data into PDF?

I need this because every label template is different (has different size labels).

This is a standard feature of Dynamic LiveCycle forms. Use the "Expand to fit" checkbox on the "Layout" tab. If you want to control the size directly, then you can use JavaScript to change the width and height of the of the text box.
