To change the vertical or horizontal scale of text

Use the vertical and horizontal scale options to increase or decrease the size of text. LiveCycle Designer ES calculates font scaling in percentage units. The default value for the vertical and horizontal scale is either 100% or no scaling. The minimum value you can enter is 1%. The maximum value you can enter is 1000%. Negative values are not applicable. You can enter values that have up to two decimal places (for example, 50.75%).

The percentage symbol (%) is automatically generated when the value in the box is validated. If you type an invalid value, the last correct value is displayed instead.

Note:

The Vertical Scale and Horizontal Scale boxes display Mixed when you apply different vertical or horizontal scale values within one or more selected objects.

1.	Select the text to change or select the object. If Edit > Lock Text is enabled, double-click the text.

2.	In the Font palette, do one of the following actions:

•	To edit the caption and data value, click the Currently Editing palette menu and select Edit Caption and Value.

•	To edit only the caption, click the Currently Editing palette menu and select Edit Caption.

•	To edit only the data value, click the Currently Editing palette menu and select Edit Value.

3.	In the Font palette, in the Vertical Scale box, or in the Horizontal Scale box, or in both, type the percentage of scaling to apply.
