It's possible this started in Ventura, but I'm not sure since I don't have a Mac with it installed.
I regularly need to fill out a PDF form in Preview. It worked just fine on my iMac--an old model that couldn't be updated past Monterey.
I bought a Mac Mini with Sonoma installed, and now that same form glitches. Many fields in that form now don't display some of the characters once I tab out of that field. That is, if I enter
123
once I tab out of that field it displays and prints as
12
If I tab back to the field it shows
123
so the additional character is there, just hidden.
Preview won't allow me to change the font/font size--it always springs back to the default (I've tried using LibreOffice, since that can actually edit PDF forms, but I've never used it and have no idea what I'm doing).
I've tried the app "PDF Professional" but it has the same problem, so I presume it has something to do with how Sonoma displays PDFs rather than with Preview itself.
Is there a workaround?
