I'm creating a pdf form with a number of list boxes. The content in the list boxes is longer than the area on the form and I would like it to wrap the text. I'm not a novice at creating forms but I'm also not advanced. Does anyone know how to do this. I'm working in Acrobat LiveCycle 8 and am looking at upgrading to Acrobat Pro X. My OS is Windows 7. Really appreciate the help.

Why not use a dialog box or a pop-up menu?Eithe one is only visible while the choice is being made.

Thank you gkaiseril but I need the content to be visible when the form is completed and printed as well. Not sure if a dialog box or pop-up menu would do the trick.

You use the pop menu or dialog box for displaying the selections options. You can then fill in a multi line text field with the selected item(s). If you want the entire list visible then you are out of luck.
