Default multi-page fillable forms

I've created a form that requires an applicant to write a narrative that may
require several pages of typing. When they reach the end of the page, a new
pages is generated, but the new page will have all the text from the first
page, and the first page will be blank. It's really messed up. Please check
it out for yourself:

Go to the last page and enter enough placeholder text to flow to a new page
- you'll see the problem.

The horizontal lines (needed if the form is filled in by hand) are in a text
box embedded in the header. Hopefully, the user entered text matches the grid.

However, the big issue is getting the form to work properly; I'm out of
ideas - your help is greatly appreciated.


Thanks in advance.
