SAP ABAP ADOBE FORMS Long Texts

I have received an issue that will pass a table via interface into Adobe Forms.

One of the fields in the table has a 500 char data element.

The issue is when I tried to display the table in adobe forms, the field that will contain the 500 char does not display its full content. The content will be truncated.

I managed to find a solution: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/450522

It states that the following needs to be done:
1. The TextField object should be contained in a subform that is set to Content: Flowed.  This isn't technically necessary, but if you have anything below the expanding text box and the subform is set to Positioned, the text will expand and overlay what's below.
2. On the Field tab of the text field's Object property tab, check the Allow Multiple Lines checkbox
3. On the Layout tab, check the Expand To Fit checkbox under Y:/Height




And then the output can finally be displayed, in its column.
