Description Marc Pare 2011-11-15 22:22:19 UTC 
When a form is created in LibreOffice and then exported as .pdf the text entry fields are too small to fit the text. 

There was talk recently on the ES list of this problem that also affect AOo. You'll find the details of the bug here: https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=114010

I have tested this on LibreOffice 3.3.4 and 3.4.4 and the .pdf results are the same as discussed in the AOo bug report. I tried to do some text entry with AcrobatReader; Okular; EVince with all the same results where the text fields are too small.

It would be nice to have it work on AcrobatReader as this is the more popular .pdf reader.

You can use the sample files included in the AOo bug to test. I used the same title to this bug as the bug title for AOo.
