TextBoxField fixed space display

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

Hi Aspose Support,



Using Aspose Pdf 9.4 for .NET 4.0, I’m trying to add a fixed-space textbox field by using the ForceCombs and MaxLen properties.



The output pdf is created successfully. When opening the pdf in Adobe Reader the appearance/state of the textbox does not appear as fixed space. Editing the textfield then displays the textfield as fixed space.



Is there a reason why the textfield doesn’t display as fixed space when first opened in Adobe Reader?



Thanks, Alan
