Default Locking a chapter to a specific position

Hello

Iīm a teacher, making a standardized response document for use when returning assignments. It has fillable check boxes and text boxes, the remaining content being locked. I attached the document here.

My problem: I need to lock the page setup, so that nothing moves, when typing in the text boxes, but so far I havenīt found out how to do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Place the form fields inside table cells whose dimensions are fixed.

You are welcome. Post back with the results, if you wish. :-)

For text form fields, using a table cell obviously doesn't prevent users from typing "excessive" text, but most people stop typing when the text disappears into the bottom margin of the cell.
