Text Box Stretching & Alignment


Forum|alt.badge.img

When I add a text box it does not give me the option to stretch its dimensions… because of this my text starts to write over top of itself which creates a box & text that does not fit onto my documents blank lines… I’ve looked online at videos where users have the option to stretch their boxes, and they have extra field property options that I do not have and do not show up on the right side of my toolbar… What am I missing?

When editing a template, you have full access to the same field editing tools you do in a live envelope. However, some users accidentally add “text labels” (which are static, non-signer fields) instead of “text fields” for signers. Make sure you’re using the correct field type—“Text” under the “Standard Fields,” assigned to a signer.
