    Hi gfjbo,

    Please try triple-clicking in the text block that you want to edit. By default, ExportPDF performs OCR (optical character recognition), so if the PDF was created from a scanned document and contained image text, then the it would've been converted to editable text by ExportPDF.

    If that doesn't work, please let us know and we'll take it from there.
