Text box font size too small

[cherylg5012706]

PDF text fill size is way too small and I can not find a way to fix it. I have deleted Adobe Reader and reinstalled it on my Windows 10 machine. I have searched the forum for help and have not found an answer. I have used Adobe Reader for years with no issues. What is the problem!

Contact the creator of the form.

The size of the text is set in the field by the creator. If you have the full version of Acrobat and if the form is not locked for editing, you can make the change. (I've done it on many forms that are not locked down!)

You can't do it with the free Adobe Reader.

Solved it.  Go into a Word (probably notepad also) document; blow up the font a LOT and then copy and paste the text into the Adobe text box.  Tested the idea and it works.

If that works it's a rich text form, and you can adjust size using the Properties palette:

CTRL + E or  goto  View (Menu) -> Show/Hide -> Toolbar Items -> Show Properties Bar

Do you use the same form as the OP?

Exactly. What works in Jame's form may not work in the OP's form. Depends on the form.
