I just sent out some school forms with long-answer boxes for e-sign and got them back with the long answer text running on one line off the page and clipped.
It was a substantial chunk of time I spent digging around to learn that I need to individually change the properties on each long answer box as follows
[Text Field Properties] > [Options tab] > ✅Multi-line
[Text Field Properties] > [Appearance tab] > Font size 🔽 Auto
Dig through the web-based E-Sign ap to download csv file for the clipped form fields > rebuild the form > re-send to signer ... ( I don't have time at the moment to write out the full path for that operation. )
There's no apparent way to batch-edit several boxes.
⚠ Another problem I'm encountering is that several fields behave differently depending on whether you add/edit in Acrobat "Prepare Form" tool or in the "Prepare Signature" Tool.
In order to make this moderately useful for my school, I will end up having to make my own video tutorials to share with staff who are in the top percentile of general power users. This is gonna be a headache for everyone else.
It would be great to see
1) uniformity across the tools for form fields, check boxes, etc
2) batch editing for field properties
3) long answer text should not be clipped off and only retrievable though several steps leading to a .csv downloadThank you Adobe Team for considering this feedback! 🙏
Still struggling though this Adobe Sign thing with a user base who basically experience the internet through phone screens...
Latest Learning >> LoLz If you look at the Adobe Experience Forms page, they describe Standard PDFs as "Legacy PDFs". >> Responsive forms look to be available only to Experience Cloud customers and not *yet* to Creative Cloud customers.
In the meantime, we'll be building Legacy forms 🦕
