Creating Bullets in Text Fields

My office has Adobe Acrobat Pro DC.  I have created a 3-page form that contains several text fields.  Some of these fields require entries in bullet format.

Other than cutting and pasting from MS Word, is there a way to:

  1. Have text field default to bullet format
  2. Create bullets in a text field

I am finding a lot of forums on how to create bullets, but none of them are in a text field.

Thank you!

Within PDF form field types there is no bullet point option.

You can use the <Alt> + <Numeric Keypad Keys>0149 to add a bullet point. Or you can cut and paste from the CharMap utility.

That's what I feared.  Thank you, though.

Hello Thom! I would like to ask you something similar, so hopefully you are still watching this conversation. I have problem with indentation - if text is longer than single row I would like to allign text with bullets. Is it somehow possible to manage this with javascript?

This is how it looks now:

This is how I need it to be:

  • text
  • text longer than one row text longer than one row text longer than one row text longer than one row text longer than one row text longer than one row

 

my code looks like this :

if(NAME.rawValue == 'LINES_DIS') {

this.rawValue = "\u002D " + this.rawValue;

}

 

Thank you for any advice.


That's nearly impossible, unless you use a fixed-width font.
