Hi The auto fill fields for the references under requirement 2 do not allow for full address due to text size in the field. I have tried many apps including Adobe, Mac, and FoxIt. I am not sure what the fix is but I can tell you that it does not allow for neat filing. It could be that the application becomes longer to allow for more field size, I am not sure. I heard this from many leaders who say “you have to write it with a pen” and thought to submit it so it’s a known issue. I just submitted an application for my son and went through this within the past 2 weeks. Thank you ---

@FrankSplain Did the font resize when the address became long? ---

@FrankSplain Were you using the form generated in Scoutbook Plus? Or were you using the form at: [https://www.scouting.org/resources/forms/](https://www.scouting.org/resources/forms/) ---

@JenniferOlinger using the form from scoutbook plus. It’s easiest way for the dates to come in. It’s the same issue though on the other link too. ---

I reported this twice back in February, eventually got word from Garfield Murden that an update was “coming soon”. It’s never appeared. I have a licensed Adobe Acrobat Pro, so I just edit each form and do a global edit of the form and make every form field to fontsize “Auto” ---
