You can control font type, color, and size easily in JavaScript. I have created forms with drop-down lists for each of these. Search the JavaScript help for textSize, textFont, and textFill for examples of how to do this.

The client 'simply' wants a 'font selector' button to appear next to various data entry fields which would allow them to alter the font in that text box for them to print a copy at their desk. They would not be allowed to -save- the changed font in the PDF. They sort of want the PDF to have a bit more flexibility, as though it were a word processing document. Do you know if PitStop will do the above? (It is not clear from the blurb I read on their web site). ---JC At 02:32 PM 07/10/03 -0700, you wrote: >PDF-Forms is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com/ >__________________________________________________________________ > >Sounds like you want to be able to have editing control over your font >usage.
