Acrobat 11 Pro - Align Function

Alignment for Objects no longer works. Because someone at Adobe decided that aligning objects is no loger important, dah! If creators would size their objects correctly and then use text alignment, this wouldn't be a problem. Adobe Acrobat can be saved as of right now Adobe has failed all of us.

I may have just found a work-around for aligning numbers (or text boxes) in Acrobat Pro XI. Type your text (left aligned) and then click off to deselect everything. When you select "Edit Text & Images" again, your text will show in its separate text boxes. Drag to select only the text boxes you want to align and right click to get the menu. Select "Flip Horizontal". This doesn't transpose the text, it just aligns the text boxes.

I have found if I select an object in acrobat pro then right click and choose "edit object" I can then open the selected objects in Illustrator and edit there - hit save as you make a change and you will see your pdf update in real time. Once you finish your last edit you can save and close the illustrator document. Your PDF reflects any changes you made. You probably need to have the fonts in your system if type is involved. Because you are using illustrator, you have it's align tools at your disposal.

Hi BBfolgart,
In Acrobat 11, Object alignment/ text box's alignment has been removed, but text inside a text box can be changed to a different alignment, Right Align, Left Align, Center Align and Justified Align (correctly observed by you).
For Alignment in A11, one has to do it manully and for facilitating manual alignment, smart guides are provided.
