| Post subject: | Vertical text alignment in AcroFields |
Hi there, Hope someone can help with this issue, I have a PDF with AcroFields (mostly text fields) which I am populating using PDFSharp. When I click on the AcroFields in Adobe Acrobat and type, the text is vertically centered in the text field. However, when I insert text into the field using code: ((PdfSharp.Pdf.AcroForms.PdfTextField)pdfTemplateDocument.AcroForm.Fields["FIRST_NAME"]).Text = "John"; ... the text defaults to top left corner of the text box. I want the text to be vertically centered but I cannot find a setting that controls this. Strangely, if I open the new PDF I create in Acrobat (with all the text values aligned top left of each AcroField) and click on each one, they align back to the center. If I tab out, they return back to the left corner but if I type an additional character into the textbox it will stay vertically centered. Anyone seen anything like this or have any tips to resolve? Thanks, Wilson. |

For anyone looking for a resolution to this issue, I downloaded the source code and modified it to suit my requirements. There are various XStringFormats, one of which is TopLeft, which was used in the rendering method for the PDFTextField class. I added my own XStringFormat - CenterLeft - and changed the rendering method in the PDFTextClass to use that instead. Rebuilt the DLL, included it into my project, problem solved. |
