Changing a Typewriter Markup's Appearance
The Appearance Properties for the Typewriter tool are generally the same as those for the Text Box Tool, though the default Font is Courier to better match the style of a typewriter. The most common thing that needs to be adjusted in a Typewriter markup is the amount of space between rows of text in order to fit properly on a form; to do so, change the Line Space setting.
To change the appearance of a Typewriter markup, select it and click the 
Properties tab.
