pdf form text field lines limit

I want to limit the number of lines that users can input in a printable pdf form text field so that there is no overflow/scroll bars or auto-resizing of the text. How can i do that?
Googled and read through 50+ questions tagged pdf to no avail. I can limit the number of characters but not lines. I have adobe acrobat and designer installed. Microsoft and open office. I am willing to pay for software that makes this possible.

It's not very intuitive, I ran into the exact same issue a couple weeks ago. (and yeah, TV's solution is the fix)

Under the "Appearance" tab, set the font size to something other than "auto." Then, under the "Options" tab, make sure that the "multi-line" box is the only one checked.
Rinse and repeat.
