Is it possible to position text i am entering into a pdf with reader ?

i scanned a form, in which i want to enter text
with adobe reader, when i select the add text tool button, i can click on the pdf and type in text, presumably in a text box
but when i want to reposition this text box afterwards ( will need to do this for each entry to make look neat ), i cannot select the text box to reposition
the box with the handles appears for a second, but not long enough for me to drag into position
can you assist ?
thanks
hard to imagine ability to enter text is there without the ability to position the text

The text box initially created is there
But I cannot seem to select it to drag to a new position
Any ideas?

  • Flash 11.1 on Firefox 19.0 on android is not allowing text to be entered into text boxes (through flash) - how can i resolve this?

    My neice is trying to use the Build-a-Bear website, which requires Flash to login and run its services. However, the plug in is loading correctly, but we cannot enter letters into the login box, just numbers.
    It's not a firefox problem with entering text as on other websites (such as BBC) text can be entered into plain search boxes.
    How can I resolve this?

    Is there any timescale as to when it's likely to be resolved?

  • How do I convert images I enter into a PDF into text?

    Would you also happen to know how I convert images I enter into a PDF into text? (I can't use OCR if text already exists on that page of the document)

    Hey SinNombre,
    Could you please specify in detail what exactly do you wish for.
    Let me know what version of Acrobat are you using.
    Please tell me what exactly do you mean by saying convert 'images to text'. What happens when you try running OCR?
    Hope to hear from you.

  • Moving text entered into a PDF without moving other objects

    Sometimes, I add text to a pdf through the following:
    -         Click Tools to the top right of Acrobat, beneath the X.
    -         Under Content | Edit Text & Objects, select Edit Document Text.
    -         Hold down ctrl before you place the cursor on the pdf.
    Often, the text is not placed in the correct spot. To move it, I go to Tools | Content | Edit Object and then select the text and move it. However, this often causes other text in the document to shift along with the text that I entered. It seems somehow the text I entered gets linked to other text and I can either move all or none of it. How can I get only the text that I just entered to shift without getting other text to shift with it?

    Test Screen Name: I think Add or Edit Text Box might be more practical than Edit Document Text if I need to move the text after I add it. With Add or Edit Text Box, moving the text box does not cause other elements to move, which is unlike what happens when I add text via Edit Document Text.
    I think the PDF creator needs to allow the option for users to use the Forms Tool. This PDF does not have form fields. As for adding text via Comments, Add stick note creates a conspicuous text box that I want to avoid, as does Insert text under Comment | Annotations.
    So Add or Edit Text Box appears to be the best option.
    I believe the sender expects me to print this PDF, handwrite my entries and then scan and email it back to him. But I am trying to find ways to save time, paper and ink by adding text without printing this PDF and the many other PDFs that I must routinely fill out.

    Install Acrobat XI (Standard or Pro).
    Use Acrobat's create PDF feature for supported file formats (TXT, RTF, DOC, DOCX, JPEG, TIFF and others are supported).
    Use the installed Adobe PDF virtual printer to "print" a PDF from any application that can print to an installed printer.

  • Default text in me51n - line position text

    Hello,
    I have a strange problem in production.
    When we start a new PR me51n, filed the first position (10), the position text is automatically filled whit a default text, that the user must delete every time. This problem is appearing only in production ( in test/ integration is not ). Also this is happening only for position 10, for all other no.
    I have checked the user exits, and that filed is not touched by any of those implemented.
    Have you encounter this situation before ?
    Regards,
    Adrian

    Hi
    Check if the BADI ME_PROCESS_REQ_CUST is working in your system, surely method PROCESS_ITEM. If it's true check if you have this interface in the coding:
    Interface: IF_PURCHASE_REQUISITION_ITEM
    Possible methods:
    IF_LONGTEXTS_MM~GET_TEXTOBJECT
    IF_LONGTEXTS_MM~GET_TYPES
    IF_LONGTEXTS_MM~GET_TEXT
    IF_LONGTEXTS_MM~SET_TEXT
    IF_LONGTEXTS_MM~ADOPT_TEXT
    IF_LONGTEXTS_MM~DELETE_TEXT
    IF_LONGTEXTS_MM~EDIT_TEXT
    I hope this helps you
    Regards

  • Position text very close to a surrounding border

    I am looking for a way to position text very close to the surrounding border of a table in an RTF template.
    A way of achieving this using standard Word functionality is to place the table with its borders in a header with a fixed placement on the page, and then place the text in another table with the same, fixed placement, in the normal part of the document. When such two parts of a document are processed by Word, the text can e.g. be placed 1 pixel from the bottom border which is normally not possible as Word will always make room for the descender of the font.
    However, when I try using the same trick in BI Publisher, it does not work, as BI Publisher always places the text of the document below the text of the header. BI Publisher does not allow the text to overlap.
    Is there a way of achieving this overlap between a page header and the normal text in BI Publisher?
    Or does anybody know of a different solution to the problem of placing text very close to the bottom border of a table cell?
    Best regards,
    Jan

    Pass me the template and xml, alonw with some xplanation and possibly with expected output.
    check in profile to get id.

  • Aperture newbie, is it possible to overlay text onto a photo?

    Aperture newbie, is it possible to overlay text onto a photo?

    Not from Aperture. But there is a free plugin named BorderFX. With this tool you can add text to photos easily.
    The option of BorderFX are:
    Add multiple borders.
    Borders can be bevelled, or shaded to create more realistic frames.
    Add Titles, Copyright & Metadata.
    Add a Watermark to your images.
    Save images back into the Aperture Library, using the BorderFX Edit plugin.
    Position text anywhere on the photo.
    Add any number of text boxes to the photo.
    Support for ColorSync and ICC profiles.
    Aperture 3, 64-bit support.

    /* Tips for sidebar1:
    1. since we are working in percentages, it's best not to use padding on the sidebar. It will be added to the width for standards compliant browsers creating an unknown actual width.
    2. Space between the side of the div and the elements within it can be created by placing a left and right margin on those elements as seen in the ".twoColLiqLtHdr #sidebar1 p" rule.
    3. Since Explorer calculates widths after the parent element is rendered, you may occasionally run into unexplained bugs with percentage-based columns. If you need more predictable results, you may choose to change to pixel sized columns.

    /* Tips for mainContent:
    1. the space between the mainContent and sidebar1 is created with the left margin on the mainContent div.  No matter how much content the sidebar1 div contains, the column space will remain. You can remove this left margin if you want the #mainContent div's text to fill the #sidebar1 space when the content in #sidebar1 ends.
    2. to avoid float drop at a supported minimum 800 x 600 resolution, elements within the mainContent div should be 430px or smaller (this includes images).
    3. in the Internet Explorer Conditional Comment below, the zoom property is used to give the mainContent "hasLayout." This avoids several IE-specific bugs.
