How to change default text properties and text box properties

I'm adding text to a PDF document by using the text box tool. The default is to put a border around the box and also the font is red and larger than I'd like. I think I found how to change the default box properties (so it has no boarder).
For the text/font, I can pull up a menu to change the font properties, but so far I'm having to do this for each box I create. One workaround is to cut and paste new text boxes with the formatting I want, but I still want to know how can I set the defaults to the font, size and color of text I want?
I'm using AA 8 Professional
Best, David

This is one of Acrobat's less intuitive areas!
For defaults, right-click on the text box that is as you want it: then select menu item 'Make current properties default'
Use Ctrl-E to bring up the Properties toolbar: its content will change depending on whether you have the box or the text selected, and selecting the box or text can be a bit clunky.

    How to change the font size of Text Box  Properties Appearance tab into 2 decimal digit. I am uanble to modify it to 5.38 pt for example. Its only allowing to 1 decimal place.

    Click on each field and the choose Properties from either File menu (or if on Mac hold dow mouse button until context menu appears choose properties)
    go to Font
    choose desired size and type font,you can choose to make this the default.
    Do this with each field.
    Or if you have a lot of fields:
    while one is selected select all of them
    then go to fonts in properties
    change Font and size and make default.

  • How to change the font size of Text box tool ?

    How to change the font size of Text box tool ?
    I am using Acrobat PDF 6.0
    Tools > Advanced Commenting > Text Box Tool
    I need to know how to change the font size. The default font size is too big.
    let me know
    Thanks

    I do not have AA6 available right now (I can check at home this evening). I am also using AA Pro, not Std. In AA7, there is a text box tool that is a commenting tool. When I started typing, a properties toolbar came up that had the font size and such. I haven't figured out how to get the toolbar after the fact. In AA8, I selected the text box tool and then went to view and selected the properties bar (the font size and all showed then), or use Ctrl-E when editing the text. I have not been able to figure out how to edit the text in a text box after you have created it - think it is a mental block right now. Bill

  • How can I disable e-mail and text messages when I'm close to or over my data quota ?

    How can I disable e-mail and text messages when I'm close to or over my data quota ?
    Is this possible? I don't see any options?
    All I see is this:
      Receive confirmations of many account transactions via Email and/or free Text Alerts delivered right to your cell phone. You can receive these confirmations for  
       transactions done online, over the phone or from your handset. Account management Text Alerts do not count against any Messaging allowances.
          Your bill is ready for review.
         Payment Confirmations: Your payment has been  received    Your credit/adjustment     has been applied.1
         Account Activity Confirmations     Plan changes     Feature changes1

    What phone?
    You would need to disable data on the phone itself.  You wouldn't do it online on your account.
    Note also that text messages do not count toward your data allowance.

    Hi

    regards
    Gincy

    Hi
    You can create Smartstyles, in which you can define paragraph formats for texts and character formats for character level changes.
    Paragraph format ---> alignment, font size etc
    character format for ---> superscript, subscript.
    After creating, in your smartform, there will be a option in the text element to enter a style.
    You give the created style and you can use the paragraph and character formats i that style.
    Hope this is clear..

  • How to get text name text object and text id for long text

    Hi,
    I am trying to fetch Long text for a given order number from transaction CO04 in SAPScript. I know that I have to use Include X (OBJECT) XX ID XXX.
    How do I get the text name, text object and text id for the order header long text from Transaction CO04.
    Points will be awarded..
    Tushar

    Tushar,
    When you are in CO02, and are at the Long Text Tab,click on the Icon that is next to the Order Number at the top of the screen (this icon looks like a Pencil and a Pad of Paper and is called "Change Long Text"). When you click on this it will take you to the SAPscript Editor. Now hit Goto->Header and you will get the data you require.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,
    Pat.
    PS. Kindly award Reward Points as appropriate.

  • How to change default compile directory tmp_ejb?

    Dear all,
    Someone knows how to change the default directory "tmp_ejb...." in WebLogic Server
    7.0?
    This is the default directory where WebLogic Server 7.0 generates and compiles
    the EJB's declared in config.xml.
    I try to specify the attribute TmpPath="ANOTHER_TMP_LOCATION_DIRECTORY_FOR_EJB"
    in the EJBContainer node but still doesn't work.
    The same thing happens when I test this attribute on EJBComponent declaration.
    Someone knows if there is an enviroment variable that specify this tmp_ejb location
    path?
    It's false that the tmp_ejb is located where the config.xml file is placed.
    I have 3 weblogic servers and they haven't the same behaviour.
    Someone can help me??????
    Thanks.

    I ran into the same problem and was wondering if you got an aswer the question you posted in BEA's news group: "How to change default compile directory tmp_ejb?

  • How to change default Ovi Player store ...

    Hi, 
    I need help from you people.  
    I had installed Ovi Player. Whenever I try to open Ovi Player, the default store gets’ open is "India". I change the store location to "Germany". When I do the search for particular music, it will again take me to "India" store instead of "Germany" store. In addition, most annoying is that I have to re-login but my user id and password will not work as its different store. Also when I go via music.nokia.de and try to login, it open Ovi player and since default location is "India", it takes me to India store and my login credentials do not work.  
    I ask Nokia care on how to change default Ovi Player Store location but they are unable to provide any good answer.  
    I already un-install / re-installed but won't work. Do any of you have answer to my problem? I want my default Ovi Player location to be "Germany" instead of "India".  
    More information, my regional settings have location as “Germany” and language as “English”.  
    Please help.

    Dear Chakraborty,
     Thank you for your response.
     This error is sometimes caused by a corrupted MDataStore.db3 file used by the Ovi Player.  This file will need to be deleted with the Ovi Player closed.  Then open the player and the datastore file will be rewritten by the application:
     Close Ovi Music Player and delete the MDataStore.db3 file:
     Vista C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Nokia\Nokia Data Store\DataBase\MDataStore.db3
     XP C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Nokia\Nokia Data Store\DataBase\MDataStore.db3
     Both of these locations are in hidden folders.  So, to view them users will need to: 
     Open Windows Explorer > Tools > Folder Options > View > Show Hidden Files and Folders
    Once Ovi Music is opened again the MDataStore.db3 file will be rewritten to this folder.
      After that manipulation try to install the Ovi Player once again:

    How to change default value in a table
    I have a table TEST which has 2 fields CODE of Datatype VARCHAR2(10) and Indicator as VARCHAR2(1).
    I want to change the default value using ALTER TABLE TEST of field Indicator to 'I'.
    ALTER TABLE  test
    MODIFY (indicator DEFAULT 'I'); 
    Incidentally, INDICATOR is a keyword in Oracle, so you may have problems using it as a column name. If so, you'll have to enclose the column name in double-quotes, and be careful to use capital letters inside the quotes.
