Question

Can Adobe add scrolling guide/thick line to acrobat, like old paper support stands?

I often have to retype exact phrases from PDF reports. Text is often blurry so it cannot be copied as text only and has to be retyped. Do you remember old stands/paper supports we had on the desks with a guide that we could move up and down to the current line we are typing? Can Adobe add this type of guide, maybe just a thick colored line I can put under the current line as a guide and then scroll it down to the next line after typing that? I currently sometimes open some photo, shrink it into a rectangle and put it over by Adobe to use it as a guide but there may be a better way from within Acrobat if you enabled something like that. I am currently retyping from a document that has similar phrases throughout so having a guide like that is crucial so I do not omit anything by chance.  Thank you!
