Is there a fix for this?

Setting a font size like this:

{code:borderStyle=solid}
  pdfFormField.getDictionary.setString(COSName.DA, "/Helvetica 10 Tf 0 g”)
{code}

causes the behavior mentioned above

_Starts out with incorrect font size. If I click into the field, it displays 
correctly. Click outside the field, it reverts back to the wrong display._

I've also asked this question here - 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23501637/set-a-pdfformfields-value-with-a-specific-font-size

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
