Text editing and formatting

You can add or replace small amounts of text in a PDF if the font is installed on the system. Otherwise, you can edit text attributes only. For extensive changes, edit the original document from which the PDF was created.

  1. Choose Tools > Advanced Editing > TouchUp Text Tool.
  2. Select the text you want to edit.
  3. Type to replace text, or press Delete to remove text.

Beside this, you are allowed to change some simple text attributes as well such as font and font size, color, character and word spacing, baseline offset, and horizontal scaling.

  1. Choose Tools > Advanced Editing > TouchUp Text Tool.
  2. Click in the text you want to edit, and then right-click/Control-click and choose Properties.
  3. Change text attributes as desired.

If the necessary font is installed on the system, you can also use the TouchUp Text tool to edit the text.

Note: If you cannot edit text, the document may have security restrictions.
