How do I fill in the background in a pdf behind text?

Hi
I am editing an existing form and I've had to add some extra text into a section which had a background colour.  However, as you can see, that colour doesn't extend to the new text.  Any ideas on how I can make the fill bigger?
Thanks

With Acrobat Professional you can use the Redaction tool to cover the area and add text.
With Acrobat Standard, you can create a form field set to read only, set the fill color to the background color, set text color as needed, set the default value to the text to display and make the alignment left. When all is set flatten the page.

  • How could I fill in the fields in a PDF form.

    Hello,
    I received a form in PDF format that has fields to be filled in.
    I coulld not type in the fields in my computer that has Win 7 or in my Mac Book Air that has Snow Leopard.
    The pdf form protection -> Security Properties-> has "filling of Form Filelds" as -> Allowed.
    Regards

    Are you sure those are real fields, and not just graphic elements that looks like fields?
    At any rate, if they are fields but they are locked, for example, then there's nothing you can do. You need Acrobat to unlock them.

    Ummm....Oracle Forms is a foreground runtime kind of thing. What you want is a database procedure (or an OS utility - it depends on what sort of processing you want to do in the background).

  • How do I speed up the conversion of a PDF to Word using Adobe ExportPDF?

    How do I speed up the conversion of a PDF to Word using Adobe ExportPDF?

    Believe me, we ALL know what you are going through!
    You CAN develop your slideshow directly in iDVD and you can have multiple songs (I just figured this out myself just now! LOL). I will walk you through the process.
    Firstly, open a new project in iDVD.
    Then press the + button (bottom left hand side) and add slideshow and a heading "My Slideshow" will show up on your iDVD screen. Then, go into your media and press photos, and drop your folder of photos into the "My Slideshow" button (if you havent put your folders into a new album in iPhoto, now is the time to do this).
    Now double click on your My Slideshow button and all your photo's should come up. Down the bottom of this page you will see some options. Slide Duration, Transition etc. Again, go into your media and select audio. Go through your playlist and hold down the apple button (next to space bar left hand side) and select the songs you want to play with your slides then drag them across to the audio button (it automatically changes the slideshow to fit to audio). The only problem I can see with this is that there is considerable "dead" time between tracks which means some slides show without music. You can easily solve this by going into Garage Band and trim off the excess "dead" time at the end of each track. If you have problems with this I can talk you through that too if you would like.
    Oh and I think i read somewhere that 99 photos is the maximum you can have in iPhoto?? That could be what is causing your problem. You could always break it down in to 2 separate slide shows?

    How can I turn off the home screen preview of SMS/text messages on my new Iphone 3GS ?

    Go to Settings>Messages and choose "No" under "Show Preview" which will hide the text part of the SMS/text message but still will pop up on who its from and just says "text message" on it.
    Other than this there is not a complete way to disable the notification.

  • "Preview," how to change font size for when you "fill in the blanks" in a pdf file?

    In the pdf reader, "PREVIEW,"
    I specifically want to find out how to change the font size for "fill in the blanks" information. They're usually huge and i just simply want to make them smaller. 
    As a complete aside, is there a keyboard shortcut for being on google chrome or safari, then immediately opening the window for "preview." I'm typing notes out on preview while listening to a video lecture on my web browser, usually chrome, and i'd like to switch back and forth.
    Thank you, I'd greatly appreciate any advice.

    HI Velders,
    Can't answer your first question but can offer some information regarding your 'aside.'
    Command-tab will move the focus to the most recent previous application. If repeated, it will step through the pen applications from most to least recent. In your described case, you could use command-tab to toggle between Preview and Safari.
    Command-~ runs you through the open windows in the same application. As with command-tab, the steps are from most to least recent.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • How do you change the background color & font in a text-only popup?

    It has been ages since I did this and I can't seem to remember how. I tried to edit the style sheet but it only has options to change the text-only popup hotspot/link and I need to change the background color and font style within the popup itself. Tried Adobe's help but it had no answer for me. Any one out there know how to do this? I am running RoboHelp 7.

    By Popup do you mean a link that when clicked causes a separate topic to be displayed in a seperate window (popup) or Drop Down text?
    For Popups that are displayed in a new window then the font and colour is changed in the topic that is displayed. Simply open the topic and change colours / features as required
    If you are using drop down text and confusing this with a popup then the font and colour is changed when creating the drop down text. Right click the text and select Font to change colour etc.

  • How can I fill out the description column of my bookmarks?

    I am new to Firefox. In the Organize Bookmarks window, I have added a column for description, but how do I fill it out?

    Click on the bookmark you'd like to add a description for. At the very bottom of the screen - where you edit the name, URL, tags - is a drop-down arrow that says "more". Click on the arrow to open up the text boxes for those other fields.
