Is there a way to apply some type of change highlighting if a user makes a change to existing text inside a PDF form field? Just a color change of the changed/added text.

Thanks in advance for your help.

I'm just guessing, but I think it should be possible using a rich text field and the Span object.

Thanks for your response. I tried playing around with the span object but it's not quite what I need. I need to be able to capture the before value of a field then the modified value of a field then whatever is different highlight it some way.
