Change the Font Used for a Field

These instructions can also be used to create a form field at both the Form Document tab of the assembly window and in HotDocs Filler.

You can choose the font that is used for answers on a form. When choosing the font, you can also indicate the style (for example, bold or italics), size, effects, and color that are used.

As is always the case when working with fonts, if the form requires a specific font be used, you must ensure the font is installed on all computers where the form will be viewed.

To change the font for a field or group of fields

1. Edit a form template. (See Edit a Form Template.)
2. Select the field or fields whose font you want to change.
3. Click the Field Properties button. The Field Properties dialog box appears.
4. At the Type tab, click Font. The Font dialog box appears.
5. Make your font selections.

You can specify default font properties for all new fields you create at HotDocs Options. See Set Properties for New Edit Fields for more details.

If you are working with linked fields in a fillable PDF template and you plan to save the document assembled from the template as a fillable PDF, any changes you make to the linked field will not be honored in the saved fillable PDF. See Check Fillable Fields in a PDF Template for details.
