Enter text on multiple lines

I am using a form for data entry, which eventually gets printed for reviews.
The data which I am entering needs to be entered on multiple lines so it is
easily readable. For example: John Smith, Director; Sally Jones, VP; etc.
Each name should be on a separate line. I can use spaces to get them to line
up on the form, but when it prints, they do not line up correctly. What is
the proper way to enter the information onto the form so that it lines up
correctly both when viewing on screen and when it prints?
Thanks.
 
If they are separate items, they should go in separate fields or separate
records. Your structure sounds flawed. What are you trying to accomplish
and what is your table/form structure?

Is this a memo field? To insert a carriage return in a memo field, press
CTRL+ENTER.
 
They are not separate items. It is a memo field, and I realized that the CTRL
+ ENTER worked, right after I posted this. Thanks for your reply.
