How do I change font size on pdf

New Here ,
Jul 21, 2017 Jul 21, 2017

I scanned a generc Monthly Rental Agreement to pdf and entered text fields to be completed as needed for my rental properties.  One section allows for additional terms and comments.  I can't seem to be able to create on large text field that allows me to type in a number of additional items; I can only enter multiple text fields for each item but them the font is larger or smaller depending on the amount of information in that line.  I would like to have one large text field that allows me to enumerate additional items but creating a large text field creates large fonts to match....is there a solution?? thanxzz

First of all, you posted in the PageMaker forum. I'll move this over to the PDF forms forum.

Add a text field. Click All Properties.

In Appearance, change the font size to a number (turning auto off).

If someone doesn't regularly create form fields in Acrobat, they couldn't possibly know. So glad I could help.

How is it possible to save the changes as default for all upcoming documents?

Once you have your form field formatted as you like, you can then right-click on the field and select Use Current Properties as New Default.  It will use ALL of the field's properties as the new default, not just font properties.
