I'm creating a fillable PDF document that has a lot of fields that I need to be multi-line, and it's getting annoying editing each fields properties to multi-line. Is there a way I can set this as a default?

Anyone able to help with this? I have made a rich text multi line text box. 

However the spacing does not align to the lines underneath.

I thought 16.5 "exactly" was correct in the paragraph setting however they misalign towards the end of the page.

Any help is much appreciated.

Hi Grace

 

Hope you are doing well and sorry for the trouble caused. As described, you have a form with lot of fields and want each of them to be multiline as it is annoying to edit each field properties.

 

Please select all the fields together by holding the Ctrl key, once all the fields are selected > Right click on any of the field > Select 'Properties' from the context menu and Select 'Multiline' option. It will apply the property to all the fileds selected at once.

 

For more information about form field properties please look at the help page https://helpx.adobe.com/in/acrobat/using/pdf-form-field-properties.html

 

Hope this information will help

 

Regards

Amal
