Creating Expandable fields in Abobe Acrobat 9.0 professional

[gbish1021]

Hello,

I am in the process of converting a standard PDF file to a interactive one. The problem I am having is that some of the fields need to be expandable to accommodate needs of the application. I am using Adobe Acrobat 9.0 to convert the standard form into a PDF file to PDF interactive file.

I have looked in Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Professional but I have not been able to find any documentation on how to expand the fields in the 9.0 Professional version.

  Can you tell me if the LiveCycle Designer has the ability to expand fields and if so how can I set up the document to create the expanded fields. I have reviewed the help documents but it not very clear as to how to go about accomplishing this task.

I have attache the form that I like to expand.

I would really appreciate some guidance in this area

Thank you for your time

Hi,

Yes, LC has expandaple fields.

First you have to make your field multiline

Second - make it expand:

But you shaould remember tha field will be expanded only after you type smth in it and lost focus.

In my case there is another field right below it, and i need that to flow in order to accommodate this expanding field. How do i do that?

Wrap fields in subform and make it flowed.

See attached example.
