URGENT: text frame when using forms adding padding to top of box

Hello, I am using the buttons and forms tool and when I convert my form with my text frames into a pdf, the text is shoved about 1 line down ala padding. If my box could accomodate 3 lines of text it can now only have 1 or 2 lines. Ctrl+B does not work on a form test field, I have tried everything in my knowledge toolbox and I need this answer ASAP, thanks so much for the help!!
