Default Re: Need help with adobe!

I edit my adobe files all the time. You have to have a full version of adobe, and the file cannot be password protected.

However, the font selection is generally limited to the font being used already, and is difficult to use larger, different fonts and NOT have the formatting get really screwed up.

There are actually several low costs pdf file makers out there that will open adobe pdf files, and by-pass the security protection that might be in place. This is little known. I use adobe, but also have two of the alternatives. Thus, be aware that adobe files ARE NOT SECURE, and can be changed, regardless of the document protection level that the creator may have put in place, especially if the person looking at the file is using a program other than adobe.

If you have a full version of Adobe (not just the reader), you can try clicking on the line where you want to insert your name, going to Tools, Advanced editing, Touch-up text tool. You will note fairly quickly that as you type in a new letter, it will insert, NOT overwrite. You will probably need to insert a letter, then delete a line spcae, insert a letter, delete a line space.... etc. Otherwise, the program will end up pushing the line past the margins, and possibily to the next line, and really screwing up the look. However, as long as you don't save the file with any screw-up formatting, you can always just discard the changes and re-open the original file.
