📌 Why this matters

Text wrapping in PDF forms prevents user frustration when responses exceed the visible field area. Without this setting, lengthy text gets cut off or forces users to scroll within tiny input boxes, making forms appear broken or unprofessional.

When you enable multi-line text wrapping, you're actually creating accessible forms that accommodate varying response lengths naturally. This becomes crucial for client intake forms, surveys, or any document where you can't predict how much detail someone needs to provide in their answers.
