font to auto size

Avatar

Level 2

How do you make the font auto size to fit in the text field, so that you can view everything that has been typed in and not get the black box with the plus sign?  I have checked the auto fit for width and length, but it still does not auto fit.

Thank you very much,

Select the Object

Go to Font Palette

Make sure you are edting Value properties only (Not Caption or both)

Change Font size to "0" (zero)

Preview in PDF. The font will be large and then decrease as more characters are added.

Make sure under Paragraph you are aligned in the Middle or Top (it doesn't seem to work when aligned on the Bottom.

Try this option

check the auto fit in Y direction only, and check Allow multiple line check box also for that text field.

I worded it wrong.  I have tried checking the boxes to "expand to fit" for both the Y and X.  II have also tried just checking one of them. Is there an auto fit box?

Thanks again,
