Title: PdfCopyFields problem?

Is the field enlarged or the font size is smaller? Either way is easy to do,just change the annot rect size or the font size property in AcroFields ( a fontsize of 0 is auto-size).

Paulo,

    I now do not believe the problem is IText. We were comparing the output of IText to that of FdfMerge and noticed that FdfMerge handles multiline fields differently than Itext. With FdfMerge if the text within a multiline field exceeds the fields length the field is enlarged to fit the text. Does Itext have this capability. Where should I start if I want to code this capability into IText?

I am  having a problem when applying data into an existing pdf form field that has the "multi-line" property set on it. Itext does not seem to handle the multiline - It truncates after one line. If I do a straight fdfmerge to the form it does do the multiline.  Am I not doing something or doing something wrong? I have attached the source for my class.
