I am making one project where i want to use two differnt fonts types and size in one button. For example like in Windows Defender where you have information about what does button do and under this you have security message in different size and type of font in one button.
For this button i have no line with code, but is here anyone who did this kind of stuff?

I am creating a Smart/Fillable PDF using Acrobat Pro DC.
I created a word file with 250+ fields(in a tabular manner), exported to PDF and then in "Prepare form" options I added checkboxes, dropdowns and a couple of buttons and the form is ready. Now I want to add 50+ more fields into that PDF but if i follow the same procedure export to PDF and then "Prepare form" then i shall loose all the old validations and scripts I have written initially.
To overcome this scenario I tried a couple of things that didn't work for me:
Go to "Edit PDF" option and try editing PDF but that did not work as that option helps editing text and images but I have fields in a tabular format so in case if I want to add a table with N x N fields not possible
Tried to copy all elements including textbox,checkbox,dropdowns buttons etc but cannot copy all at once, tried then in a small group like 15-15 and that worked but still I had to reposition so not a feasible way
Tried to export the elements including textbox,checkbox,dropdowns buttons etc but Acrobat Pro DC doesn't help
Many other manipulative things but didn't help.
Please help me to overcome this problem.
Thanks in advance.
If you change the background of the form, you would first open the old version, and then replace the pages with the ones from the new version. This does not affect any form fields, so, only some repositioning may be necessary.
Then you go to the form edit mode (or use the Select Object Tool (single key accelerator R)) and you can select the fields you want to copy and either drag-copy if you are on the same page, copy/paste them, or duplicate them on other pages (via Context menu of the selected field in edit mode).
Another potentially important hint: deactivate Save as… optimizes for fast web view when working with forms.
In my program, my default font is fit to small windows but user can maximize windows and then all font is too small when user do that. I would like to increase all font size in all page of my program when user maximize a windows. I can change size for each text but there are too many text that i need to change. Is there any command to change all font in my program ??
Thank you.
If you have not messed about with the fonts in the controls, then they should all be linked via their ParentFont property. So all you have to do is assign a new font to the form they are on and they'll all happily follow suit.
Note you'll need to get your controls resizing properly as well.
I have some forms that I need to add expanding text boxes to.
I already have Multi-Line selected. And yes the scroll-bar appears when field is full and you keep entering text. However, when you go to print, it doesn't print out the full text.
I know in Adobe LiveCycle you can make dynamic forms, that bump onto the next page. I have done this, but you lose so much functionality in LiveCycle. To be dynamic you lose the ability to position objects without using tables and therefore doing designs and graphics are not as easy.
Has anyone found a way to do this in Adobe Acrobat X Pro?
At this point, I think it would be easier just to convince people that a web form is much easier to update and style any way you want with print CSS stylesheet.
Thanks for any suggestions.
To be dynamic you lose the ability to position objects without using tables and therefore doing designs and graphics are not as easy.
That is not true. A form being dynamic or not has nothing to do with having flowed or positioned content. A static form renders once on the server, a dynamic form can be re-rendered on the client and thus is able to reflect layout changes like hiding objects or altering heights of objects (more info).
With either form type you can have both positioned and flowed content. The trick is to divide your form into subforms according to the structure of the data you want to display (tutorial).
To let the text field grow automatically with the amount of text, enclose it in a subform with flowed content, allow multiple lines and enable "expand to fit" (or "auto-fit).
I want to get the height necessary to display the full text in my RichTextBox (when the text extends beyond the set height of the control).
Reminder: Silverlight has no handy TextRenderer.MeasureText like WPF does, nor any other apparent way to measure text.
Doesn't seem like there's any way to do this. I've seen mention of people measuring text of a single font (not mixed as in my RichTextBox) by creating a TextBlock and getting it's Width. Even this doesn't work - it's perfect for some fonts and inconsistent for others.
My app is occasionally connected, so I can't call the server.
As you say, I don't think there's a good way to do this in Silverlight today. There are some functions available in the Document Toolkit by First Floor Software, however those are geared towards working with XPS documents. I'm not sure what you're trying to do, however in Silverlight 5 the RichTextBox does come with the ability to "overflow" text into multiple other RichTextBoxes when the first one cannot display all of the data. This allows you to more easily create a multi-column text layout.

I'm trying to build a web app to programmatically fill out a PDF form. I am going to configure my form first in Adobe Acrobat, then write a Java app with iText to fill out all the form fields via user input from the web. The base form I need to fill out comes from the US government. They created form fields with extremely large kerning (character spacing) values I need to change. However, there appears to be no way to modify this value in the Acrobat UI.
Does anyone know how to manipulate character spacing on form fields in Acrobat 8.0 for Windows? I could try to use iText to programmatically manipulate the kerning of the original document, but this would be much more tedious.
I believe I figured this out: kerning is called "combing" in acrobat, and each of the form fields have been "combed". The strange thing is this option isn't checked when I view the properties of the form field, but "combing" is the behaviour I was attempting to replicate.
