How can I right-justify the text in a drop-down field in Acrobat 11?

[joken99]

I have a literal that we want to include as a prefix before an Account Number field.  The users wanted an option to use either Account No.:or
Account Number:, so I was going to right-justify the choices in the drop-down selections but I don't see where to change the alignment propterty.  I used spaces preceding the Account No literal, but it would be better if I could right-justify the selections in the combo box.

Please let me know if there is a way to do this.

Thanks!!!

Under the field's Properties, go to Appearance and select Right-To-Left as the Direction.

I'm not seeing a right to left setting under properties for the combo field.

Attached is ths properties screen I'm getting.

Thanks for the help!!!

What exact version number? Look under Help - About Adobe Acrobat.

I also use XI Pro and this is what I see:

I just thought of something you should try... Look under Edit - Preferences - Language and make sure that the "Enable right-to-left language options" box is ticked. Maybe that will cause this option to appear.

Gilad,

Which language version of Acrobat are you using?

English

The language preference you mentioned is what activates this option.
