I can add text boxes, but I can't add text in other places.

Hi Jkostka,

For starters, please try triple-clicking in the text block that you want to edit. If that doesn't work, we would need to take a closer look at the PDF that you converted. Do you know how it was created? If you don't, please open it in Adobe Reader, and choose File > Properties. The document creator is listed in that dialog box.

I look forward to hearing back from you.


Best,

Sara

Thank you for your rely, Sara!

No, triple-clicking doesn’t work. I can edit a text box, but not any other part of the document.

Document Properties doesn’t list a “Creator,” but it does list a PDF Producer: iTextSharp 4/1.2 (based on iText 2.1.2u).

Does that help?

Sara, any further suggestions? The only reason for renting the Export PDF program was to be able to edit Word docs. Would appreciate any help you or others can provide.

Many thanks!
