Hello Furuno_IT,

I see that you are working with "Edit Text & Images" in your PDF document.

If you are familiarized with text editors, such as MS Word, you may find useful similarities in the procedure that you are trying to apply here.

Make sure that  before you paste the text or image onto your PDF, right-click on an empty area of the page you are working on. You may noticethat as you right-click  then select from the pop-up menu "Send Backward" or "Send to Back" (whichever works for you) as shown below:

It would greatly assist us if you (1) indicate exact Acrobat version you are running and (2) can post a sample file exhibiting the issue. Without that, we really can't assist and/or track down what the issue really is. Thanks.
