Moving Text
I have a form used for OCRing that has 2 text boxes on it. If data is added
to the first text box and it raps around to a second line, it drops the second text box down a line. The scanner then mis-reads the next text box. Is there a way to force the second text box to stay put? Thanks |

Is there a way to force the second text box to stay put? You need to place all form fields into table cells (setup a large table for the whole form or a logical part of it), and format the table rows to have a fixed height.
