           Summary: Font used for filling PDF forms has wrong size

                OS: Linux

SUMMARY

Using a PDF document with forms, okular lets one fill them. However the font
size that gets employed for the form filling (that is not customizable) is
wrong (too small). As a consequence, one ends up putting too much text in the
fields, with the result that when the  form editing mode is disable the text
ends up cropped.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a document with a form
2. Select the form editing
3. Fill in the fields till the last bit of space
4. Switch off the form editing mode
5. See the form text becoming larger and not fitting inside the prescribed
spaces.

OBSERVED RESULT
The form text may not fit inside the prescribed spaces even if in editing mode
it did.

EXPECTED RESULT
During the form filling one should get a reasonable idea of the space taken up
by the entered text.
