I need to limit the amount users can type into the fields, as opposed to the scrolling that occurs now (even with a rectangular field instead of a scrolling one), so that the answers will fit into the printed fields. I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this. I think the idea is to constantly compare (every key) the formattedHeight of the field with its actual height and "pass" any keys when the 2 are equal, or something like that. Thanks in advance!

Limits on text typed in fields
I am working on a program that requires users to type answers into fields, which are later sent to fields on another page that is printed. I need to limit the amount users can type into the fields, as opposed to the scrolling that occurs now (even with a rectangular field instead of a scrolling one), so that the answers will fit into the printed fields. I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this. Thanks in advance!
