Field type suitable for Multi-line text entry - String, String UTF-8, Translated text.

[Rakesh Goel]

I want to provide a multiple line text field on a form - some with suggested text - and others without. I have the following questions:

Question: There are three field types that are available in the Form designer on the "Field Type" tab. a) String, b) String (Full UTF-8) and c) Translated Text. 

Which one should I use for the multi-line text? All allow multi-line text. In the case of a) and c) you have to specify Maximum length.
