I am creating a form that among other things, contains two form fields. The fields have the same name so that as one gets updated, the other is updated also. The only difference between the two is the font. One is Arial, and one is a 3 of 9 barcode font. My problem is that I'd like to shrink the horizontal scale of the barcode. How can this be accomplished?

I'm not afraid of using JS to do this if necessary. I've never used it in a PDF before, but found the docs at
http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/acrobat/sdk/Acro6JS.pdf
and
http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/acrobat/sdk/Acro6JSGuide.pdf

However, not having any meaningful JS or PDF experience (other languages, just not JS) I'm not sure how to do it. Any suggestions?
