Set default width for text box in Adobe Acrobat X

Hello!
I am using the textbox tool to add comments to a document. (not the Typewriter, but the Textbox, since that has more flexibility for formatting the text).
I know how to set the default proprties for text size, color, background color, etc.
Cannot figure out however to to set the default width. Every time I try to add a new textbox, it defaults to about 1 or 2 inches wide, so the text wraps around and around, and then I have to resize the box when I am done.
Is there a way to change the default width?
Thanks!

Hi, Amonra
I drew a box I like, and select, and then, Ctrl+C, and then Ctrl+V.
And move the pasted box where to need, and resize the length. At least I get same width boxes.
I don't know how to default it.
I hope it may help you.

  • How do I change the font size and color in a text box in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro (ctrl e does not work)?

    I need to mark up scanned pdf documents with text box comments. I can insert the text box and type text but I cannot change the font or color. When I press Crtl E, no tool bar appears in the menu bar. What does appear in the menu bar is "No current selection". Please advise.

    I am already doing that: creating the text box, typing the text, selecting the text i.e. highlighting the text. This morning, for a scant minute, the properties tool bar appeared and I was able to refine the text in a text box. Then it disappeared never to be activated again this morning.
    I work half of my weekly hours at this client office and I only have this problem on their pc and adobe software (version 9 pro). When I am home, my laptop and the adobe software (version 10 pro) is fine. I can create the text boxes and refine the format at will with no issues. Could it be a software version and/or update issue? Thanks for any assistance.

  • Defaulting Bold in Text Tool in Adobe Acrobat 8

    Good Afternoon,
    I have a user who has Adobe Acrobat Standard 8.  She wants her default text tool to use a bold font.  I was able to figure out how to change the default color of the text tool (and keep it), but bold does not stay.  Does anyone know how to set the default font to bold in the Text Tool.
    Thanks!

    I do not know how you created the PDF. You might try going back and printing to the Adobe PDF printer. Open AA6 and then select the file that way. Does this work?

  • How to set a fixed width for a box

    Hi there,
    Struggling here.... must admit. 
    I need a solution whereby I can set a fixed width for a box that is grouping two buttons.  I suppose generally, I want to know how to set a fixed width for anything element.
    See the picture below.  I want the two buttons to stay the same distance apart, and I want the grouped buttons to stay the same distance from the right edge of the window, even as a user resizes the window.
    This is what happens when you reduce the size of the window .....
    I would like to stop this from happening.
    I can't figure out how accomplish keeping the parent div a fixed width, and a fixed position from the right side of the window, so the buttons won't overlap.
    Perhaps I'm doing the whole thing wrong. 
    I mean, is there a way to accomplish this without grouping the buttons?  That is, make the buttons fixed width, fixed distance apart from each other, and fixed distance from the right side of the window, even as the user resizes the page?
    I am trying to accomplish this using the Min/Max width settings, but given that there are so many different units to choose from, and the fact that when I place a button or box on the screen, it seems to be creating that button or box with a percentage-based width, I don't know how many pixels to set it to.... sigh....
    Many thanks in advance for your help.
    Sam

    Okay after much futzing I figured out at least part of the solution I need, but if someone knows of a more efficent way to do this please let me know. 
    I set a fixed minimum width in pixels for both of the buttons at 156px.
    I then made the left button float left and the right button float right.
    I then made the parent div for the buttons float right.
    That made the buttons stay the same size.
    The only thing I need to figure out how to do now is make the parent div stay a consistent distance in pixels from the right.  I tried setting a right margin but that didn't work.  As you size the window down, the div gets closer to the edge, until it passes it.

    Hi,
    According to your description, you want to set default value for TaxonomyWebTaggingControl.
    I have a test in my environment. It could be achieved by setting the Text Property of TaxonomyWebTaggingControl.
    Here is the code snippet:
    TaxonomySession session = new TaxonomySession(SPContext.Current.Site);
    SPSite site = SPContext.Current.Web.Site;
    TermStore termStore = session.TermStores["Managed Metadata Service"];
    Group group = termStore.Groups["GroupA"];
    TermSet termSet = group.TermSets["A"];
    Term term = termSet.Terms["A1"];
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.SspId.Add(termStore.Id);
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.SSPList = termStore.Id.ToString();
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.TermSetId.Add(termSet.Id);
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.TermSetList = termSet.Id.ToString();
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.AllowFillIn = true;
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.IsAddTerms = true;
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.IsMulti = false;
    TaxonomyWebTaggingControl1.Text = string.Format("{0}|{1}", term.Name, term.Id.ToString());
    Here is a detailed article for your reference:

  • Extending flash: how do I set default values for filenames

    Hi,
    I am trying to set default values for filenames
    <choosefile> and <popupslider>s that will show up when
    my XMLpanel first loads in my jsfl extension file. It seems that I
    can only set default values for textbox items.
    How do I do this for filenames and popups?
    As a workaround, I also tried using a flash object dialog box
    to look like a <choosefile>, or any jsfl command, but then
    how do I return those values back to the XMLpanel that calls them.
    and pass the data back to my jsfl script.
    lemme know if you know a way,

    Create two constants for the Allocate Mode input (right click > create > constant). Place one in the true case of the case structure, and place the other one in the false case. Wire them to the same tunnel (border of the case structure), then wire the tunnel to the Allocate Mode terminal of the AO Config. I don't have Traditional DAQ installed, but that should do it.

  • Getting Keynote's "Defining Default Attributes of Text Boxes" to work

    The following is from the iWorks09 Keynote "Help" for the topic "Defining Default Attributes of Text Boxes and Shapes":
    4. Do one of the following:
    To make the text box the default for only the current master slide, choose Format > Advanced > “Define Text for Current Master.”
    To make the text box the default for all master slides in the current theme, choose Format > Advanced > “Define Text for All Masters.”
    I tried doing everything up to this point, but when I select "Format > Advanced" there is NO OPTION (not even unselectable "faded") for > “Define Text for All Masters.” There is only a an option for "Charts" & it is unselectable (there should be options for text, shapes, charts, etc.)
    Can anyone help me?
    If not, this is definitely a *+_major bug_+* that needs to be fixed!!

    Kogiah,.
    What do you mean when you say that the Lock commands don't work? Are they grayed-out, or is that once you use them you don't like the result? If the option is grayed-out, you either don't have an object selected, or the selected object is formatted as Inline. Changing the format to Floating will bring back the Lock option.

    You have mentioned 2 things.
    1. Don't want selection windows for running program for PNP - this can be achieved using the HR Report category - You can get more details on HR Report Category on
    HR Report Category
    2.  I want to set default value for some selection items - This you need to achieve in initialization event of your program.

  • Why can't I select Text box in Adobe XI?

    I am SO frustrated. I can't do something so simple as select a text box in Adobe XI. Whenever I try, all it does is edit the text. I have tried clicking all over in different spots of the object with the select object tool and all it will ever do is edit.

    If it is going to edit text, then you have the edit text tool and not the select object tool. However, these have changed in functionality between versions. I just checked AA XI and if you select the edit text and images under the content editing tools, you can select a text box and move it around. I think this is what you wanted. You have to move the cursor to the edge of the box to move it.
