I was able to convert the PDF to a PDF form using Acrobat Pro. I filled in
a few of the fields using PDFBox but the fonts in the fields varied. Some
were huge and others were reasonable. I went back into Acrobat Pro and
looked at the properties for the form fields and the font size is set to
Auto. How do I set the font size on my input fields to all use the same
fort and size?
