Formatting
If the "boxes" you are referring to are frames, you can right-click the
border, choose Format Frame from the context menu and specify exact
measurements for width and height.
If the boxes are text form fields, the usual approach is to place them
inside table cells (or frames, for that matter) with exact dimensions. That
way, the form won't resize even if excessive data is added to the fields.

Im strugling here to even get anyone to understand what I mean but here
goes. I have some paper forms I have converted to electronic ones. There
are
boxes where people need to fill out information. However as soon as anyone
types in the box and goes over one line the box gets bigger and the form
grows by a page. Meaning that when they have finished they have to go
and
remove empty spaces to get the form back to the two pages long it is
meant
to be. I want to restrict the inputting people make to just the boxes
and
not have the form grow. This is driving me mad please help
