"+" appears on graphic after inserting text box in Adobe Acrobat X Pro

Hi all,

I have an "+" that appears in the left side of my graphic after a text box has been inserted.  It happens when I click inside the text box to set up the text that needs to be used by my customers.  I can change fonts, size, color, do alignment, etc.  It's when I exit the mysterious "+" appears.  I have tried everything to remove it, to no avail.

I am working in Windows 7 on a PC.  Attached is a screen shot of the problem.  It appears in the graphic toward the bottom of the solid blue/yellow element, right above the sentence that starts:  "Next, in the Alignment tab, click Align Center...."  It's a white + in a black looking square.  It will also print on the graphic.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!!

It's an indication that there's a text field with more text in it than can be displayed on the screen.

Wow, that was it!  I guess I've just been lucky that I never in the past inserted text that was too large for the space.  Thank you so much for solving the problem, I was about to panic. 

Thank you!!!
