How to create a bigger text field in Adobe Acrobat?

New Here ,
Jun 05, 2018 Jun 05, 2018

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to make a PDF file which clients of us can fill in on their computer.

So I used Adobe Acrobat and added text fields all through the file.

But unfortunately, it's only possible to add one sentence in each field, but the answers people have to give are much more than one sentence.

I've made the text fields bigger and sometimes they even consist a whole page. But I can't add more text than the one sentence.

Does anyone know where it goes wrong or how I can fix this?

Thanks.

Right-click the field in Form Edit mode, go to Properties, Options and tick the Multiline box.
