Why does text shift in a locked template when filling in fields?

I created form fields and locked the document; why does the text shift when I
enter information in the form fields?
 
Protecting a document for forms just protects where data can be entered, not
the layout of the document. If you want to confine the entry to a specific
location, you can put it in a table cell with preferred width and exact
height (and table auto resizing disabled).
 
Thank you so much for your very quick response! I never thought of defining
the table sizing. I appreciate your help. Sandi Keown
