I am creating a form in which users are suppopsed to answer questions by
writing in a paragraph of text, anywhere from 1 to about 10 lines.  I've
figured out how to add text content controls.  But, I want to limit the size
of the 'boxes' so that whatever the users type will not affect where my pages
break.

How do I limit or control how much text they enter?

Thanks!

The usual way is to inset them inside the cells of a table with fixed
dimensions.
