            Description

            When when entering text into a text field it is possible to use the tab key. The tab key doesn't directly translate to postscript. We have a couple options to fix this issue. The first is to mask the tab key on input fields. The second is to replace a tab character with x number of spaces.

              Tab's key char doesn't have much meaning in PDF. As a result of focus work, the tab character is no longer recorded when typed in a textArea. Tab and shift-tab are use instead for focus management.
