Hello, I am pretty clueless when it comes to this program, I have edited a few PDFs on here but on the most recent one I did, the added text is not appearing on the downloaded document. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

How exactly did you add the text? What tool did you use, and what application?

@luke_2593 It works for me, and I just selected the 'Add Text'' and enter some text. Then clicking outside of the the text box it gets applied. Because you are relatively new with the program, here is an awesome link on how to edit PDFs:
