Question

My numbers in the PDF's are changing to boxes with X's in them.

I have a credit card statement and I am uploading all of the receipts associated with the statement. I am trying to write next to each charge which page number the receipt is on. I right click on the PDF and press "Add Text" and then write, for example, Page #1-2 next to the charge. Then, randomly, the numbers change (in this example the #1 and #2) to a box with an X in them. It's very time consuming going back and changing these from boxes to numbers just for all of them to change back to boxes with X's in them. Any ideas how to fix this?

Don't add text like that, and instead use the commenting tools. You're seeing some sort of font-related problem when you add text to a page that way.

Thanks! I tried this out, but the commenting tool makes it so I have to press on the icon to see what I have written. I need the text to be visible without having to click on anything.
