I had a co-worker tell me she was having trouble on one of our pdf forms. It is a job application form and there is one section where you are supposed to describe your job duties. The form shows three lines. I set up three text field boxes, but it looks like the users don't go past the first line. They keep typing and typing as the font gets smaller and smaller. I told them to move the cursor, but is there a way to make them automatically jump to that next text field and then to the third? If you name all three fields the same, wouldn't you get the same thing in all three text fields? Thanks.

Delete the second two text fields.
Expand the first text field to include the entire typeable area.
In the field properties, Options tab, select Multi-line.
