Hi - I am working on a PDF form that uses a custom javascript to auto fill text boxes based on check marks. Becasue there a few different selections is it possible to write a script that will auto format the whole document, so all of my paragraphs are equally spaced and paragraphs/lines wont have to be pushed up or down when the form is complete ? 

 

Thank you

They are all in form text boxes - I used a script to made them fill based on check boxes, but the paragraphs that fill are all different sizes depending on the check box selection. I'm basically creating a letter based on a request form with check boxes as options.

Fields can be moved around a page by manipulating the value of their rect property. They can't be moved from page to page, though, without removing and re-creating them entirely each time.
