I have a form someone sent me. I need to change the size of the font or the size of the box because some of the info is being cut off. There is a + on a couple boxes that indicate there is more info but I cannot seem to simply edit either one of these. I am in a time crunch can anyone help me, thanks in advance!

Alternatively, click the border of the field and drag to resize it.

I didn't make the form, Im just trying to fill it out, and I cannot grab the box to drag it. Doesn't do anything. Also, if I hit form edit it seems to add these large boxes that turns the form into "images" and I cannot edit the font size there. Thus my frustration. It seems like there should be a simple font size tool.

There is. It's located where I described. If you're not seeing any form fields then it means the file was flattened and the overflowing text is lost.

What there ISN'T is a simple font size tool for form fillers. The font size is part of the form design, and you've indicated you want to change the form design. Caution: do NOT change the design of official forms! This can lead to serious official problems.
