Font inconsistency.

My Acrobat Standard DC opens pre filled sections of service forms with a different font and size than what was used when typing the pre filled areas.  This only happens when the service form was saved as a fillable pdf.  I have to change the properties to all the fields to fix it.  Please help!

This is how it is. You cannot set the font of the fillable parts of the form outside Acrobat. There is a plugin that has a workaround called FormMagic it deals with this and similar issues. It has two parts one for InDesign where you make the font and the second part is a script to run in Acrobat. Note that this supposes that the font is available in the computer that you are using to fill the form.

What was the font originally set to and what are you changing it to? Do you know how the form was created?
