How do you correct text entered on a flat pdf

I added text to a flat pdf to fill in lined blanks using the "add text" command and then saved it. I needed to go back in to correct some of the text entries I made; however, common sense told me to go to Tools and then Edit text. This would only let me edit the text behind what I typed in the blanks, i.e. the underline. I have not been able to find any instruction on correcting added test. Any suggestions would be welcome.

That is what I tried prior to posting my question. It did not work for me. It would change the text behind the text entered,  i.e. the pdf has a lined area that you fill in. Using the add text I added the info to fill in the blank. After doing so I saved my changes, only to realize I needed to correct an entry I made. I choose the add text tool and tried to highlight my text entry, but it would only select the lined blank behind my test. It would delete that and leave my text there.

  • IPhone 6 recently stopped ringing and making text alert sounds since most recent upgrade to ios 8.1.1, has anyone experienced this, and if so, how did you correct?

    AFter recent upgrade to ios 8.1.1, my iphone 6 no longer makes text alert sounds and ring does not sound for incoming calls (except on car bluetooth).  has anyone experienced this, and if so, how did you correct?

    I had the same problem until tonight. Played with ring tones, do not disturb, volume, and everything else posted. What I found is that when you go to sounds/text tone, there are two types of tones in the scrolling menu. The top set of tones are for alert tones and the bottom set are ringtones. They are separated by a gray bar that states their purpose. Many of the tones are the same name. You need to set your text alert in the Ringtones and reminders, alarms, and such in alerts. The weird thing about this menu is when you go to sounds/ringtone the menu is reversed. Mine works in locked mode or unlocked now. I have an Iphone 6 8.1.2. My problem started after my latest OS upgrade. Hope this helps.

  • TS3999 How do you get info entered into iCal and Contacts on an equipped iPhone to push back to an equipped MacPro? so far it's only a one way street Macpro to phone, and that's not what I was told it would be.

    Hi, all.
    How do you get information entered into iCal and Contacts on an equipped iPhone to push to an equipped MacPro? So far it's been a one way street Macpro to phone, and that's not what I was told it would be. I've been through all settings on both devices and see no way to do this. Help! If I synch the old fashioned way, what's going to happen?

    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • How do you edit text that is in a text box?

    How do you edit text that is in a text box?  I just want to change the font color of the text.  Solution in the Help files recommends selecting the text and then selecting Optional) To make further changes to the text box:
       Using the Select tool or the Text Box tool, click an edge of the text box to select it, and then drag a corner to resize it. Use the Properties toolbar to change the border and fill options.
       Double-click the text box to edit the text or change the text attributes. Drag across text to select it, and then select options from the Properties toolbar.
    This is what the help files recommend
    (Optional) To make further changes to the text box:
       Using the Select tool or the Text Box tool, click an edge of the text box to select it, and then drag a corner to resize it. Use the Properties toolbar to change the border and fill options.
       Double-click the text box to edit the text or change the text attributes. Drag across text to select it, and then select options from the Properties toolbar.
    When I try the above solution I don't have a  "Options" in the "Properties" toolbar.
    Why would they change a process that was so simple in previous editions to such a hidden awkward process?

    Try with a Brightness/Contrast adjustment layer and/or changing the blending mode.
    If the effect is too much for the rest of the bulb, you may be able to mask it out.
    It would help if you post a representative picture here on the forum page for us to look at.

    Wow!
    I'm not going to be of much use regarding answers but I sure am going to watching this post like a hawk for any replies. My package is a slightly diluted version of this and I do find the BBtalk and data limits hard to make the most of as well.
    If nothing else this totally highlights how complicated BT have managed to make their packages.
    A cynic would assume that they are trying to catch us out at every step and for us to either be overspending or not really getting the moneys worth.

  • How do you highlight text in document in Pages

    How do you highlight text in document in Pages

    but Pages is NOT a 3rd party app.  it's an application that's programmed by apple.  it's supposed to act something like Word in MS office, but that is not at all true. 
    choices for editing text, highlighting, et al., like what you find in MS Office Word, should be immediately available whenever you are inside of a Pages document, but that is not the case. 
    don't you wish that when you buy an apple app for apple/macs that is supposed to be like a windows something or another that it really is?

    How do you center text in a JOptionPane?
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"File(s) Moved Successfully","Finished", JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);

    Instead of adding the string "File(s)...", create a
    JPanel. Add your text as a JLabel to this JPanel
    using the appropriate LayoutManager. Now add the
    JPanel in place of "File(s)..." in the
    showMesageDialog call.Or just use a JLabel, set its alignment to center and add the label instead of the string.

    If at all possible, you don't. You get the original (pre-PDF file), you edit that.
