I'm re-typing this question as my first attempt was not clear:

I have two text boxes (text box 1 and text box 2). I have them set up so that when I type into text box 1 the same information auto fills into text box 2. However, I want the text in text box 2 to have a different format from text box 1 (different font weight and different point size). Is this possible and how is it accomplished.

An identical question was answered just earlier on today (as well as many times in the past). See: https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat/javascript-help/td-p/10873040

Thank you Try67 for your reply but I don't believe it answers my question. I already have my 2 text fields linked so that information from the first automatically fills the second. What I'm trying to find is a way to get that second text field to display the same text but in a different font size and weight. So that text box 1 displays text at 30pt helvetica and text box 2 displays the same content but at 10pt helvetica.

Yes, that's exactly what it does. You set the field's properties to show the text the way you want it and use the script to copy the value from the first field to the second one automatically.
