Hi,


Is it possible to increase the width of form fields (text boxes) inside pdf document?

For example, if we have a form field that was placed inside table cell element, we want to set the width of form field to the width of parent cell element

Hi there,


Thanks for your patience. You can modify the position of an existing field. Please refer to following code snippet for the purpose. First you have to get the field. Then use Rect property to getting and setting field position. A Rectangle object with new coordinates is assigned to Rect property for new position.

//open document
Document pdfDocument = new Document(“input.pdf”);
//get a field
TextBoxField textBoxField = pdfDocument.Form[“textbox1”] as TextBoxField;

// get existing position
Aspose.Pdf.Rectangle rect1 = textBoxField.Rect;
//modify field location
textBoxField.Rect = new Aspose.Pdf.Rectangle(rect1.LLX, rect1.LLY, rect1.URX + 50, rect1.URY);
//modify field location
//save modified document
pdfDocument.Save(“output.pdf”);
