Printable Expanding Text Fields

Avatar

Level 1

I am still having issues figuring out how to print out expandable text fields.  I read some post here but I still cannot get my "comments" box to print completely.  When I select print I only see the first two lines displayed.  Is this something I have to configure in LiveCycle or when I open the form in Adobe.

Thanks

There are some things you need to check..

Your form needs to be saved as dynamic PDF.

The comments box needs to be set to Expand to fit in the Height property in the Layout tab.

The subform that holds the Comments box should be set to be Flowed.

Hope this helps.. If not let me know or you can send the form to LiveCycle9@gmail.com so I can have a look at it...

Thanks

Did you make sure that you have a dynamic form and not static?

Select the comments fields andmake sure that allow multiple lines is set in the object tab.  Then go to the layout tab. Make sure that the height is set to expand to fit (this is a checkbox).

You also have to make sure that the subform / page that this control is on has a flow layout, so that it expands to accomodate your dynamic comments.

Sorry for the duplicate message. - After a refresh I didn't see Srini's comments which are the same as mine.
