Indeed, I'd also like to see it. Font size "auto" is not the same.

What I understand, so far, is that you create a text box with a width of 1cm
and expect this to grow when the user enters more than 10 characters or so. Up
to a maximum of course. Never seen such a control and doubt it works on PDFs. 

The use case of unclear input length is very common and solved with so called
memo fields, multi-line text input. The text box has the property Text Type for
this and when set to "Multi-line" you can define when to break and how
scrollbars appear.

Works for me, and you?
