Question

Texts appear pale

Hi,

Since a few days, out of nowhere, I have some problem with the text I write on PDF. When I start adding text, everything is alright, until I'm done with it and I start text somewhere else or change page. Then, the preciously written text become pale and surrounded with a white border. I don't have this problem with shapes.

Is there a way I can fix it? It's pretty annoying.

Thank you

Alice

    I clicked on «assumed answered» by accident and I cannot go back...

    This topic is still UNANSWERED and I would really like to get an answer. How can I get an answer from Adobe?

    Hi Albo,

    I fixed the “Assumed Answered” part for you by marking another post correct and then unmarking it. Any moderator can do that for you.

    Is that a comment tool? I can’t tell from the small screen shot. I see Arial 14. It appears bold when you type it, and then regular when you finish.

    Can you show the whole toolbar? Also try Arial Black if you have it, and Calibri Bold or another type face with bold to test.

    I’ll be away from the office for a few hours, but will check in when I return, or another volunteer may answer.

    Let's try to illustrate it.

    The text is normal when I write it, and then it's pale when I put my cursor way, and there's a white border around it.

    What tool are you using? Can you post a screen shot?

    Is the border on each letter or is it a rectangle around all of the text?

    Hi jane-e,

    The border is on each letter. I use this tool:

    You can see below what happens to the text. On the left is when I am writing, and on the right is after I put my cursor somewhere else. It becomes hard to read.
