Before the most recent Adobe Sign update, I was able to add a multiple lines option to the Text field; however, I do not see the option to add multiple lines or text wrapping. Has anyone figured this out?

This still appears to be an open issue. Is there a fix from Adobe that I am missing?

Hi AEO294910089oxb,

 

Thank you for reaching out, and sorry about the delay in getting back to you.

 

Please let us know if you are still experiencing issues with the text field. If so, could you share more information on how it works now?

 

Let us know if the issue has been resolved.

 

Thanks,

Neither do I. In fact, now all my multi-line text fields contain unparsed XML code!

 

This is one of four brand new bugs in the new Acrobat Sign experience that I swear will push me to another service.

 

The original form, in edit mode, with a multi-line field pre-filled:

 

The same form, in Fill & Sign mode, with the prefilled content showing as XML:

The drop-down option in edit mode for the text field:

My solution was to revert to the previous Adobe Sign version.

Hi Valerie306806356zeg,

 

Thank you for reaching out.

 

Please let us know the option you currently get. It would be helpful if you could share the screen recording of how you are adding the form fields and the option you get there. It will help us to provide you the correct information about the workflow. If the option is missing we will inform the team and get this behavior checked. 

 

Thanks,

Meenakshi

Yep -- same here -- no option for multi-line text in boxes added for signature docs. Please add back!

Also -- the ability to do pre-fill is also gone. Please just replicate options that existed before!
