Hello. We use our main ERP system to create "routings" that needs text added after being saved. We select print "save as PDF" an save the PDF'on our C drive in Solidworks PDM. Then we open the Solid Works PDF and find the location where I saved the PDF. I need to to add text to my PDF, but I do not want to create a "form" or edit any of the other text on the PDF. As the attached pictures show, the font is very small and on the far left of the line. How do I make the default font bigger without hitting the "A" several times depending how big I want the text and how do I get it centered on the line as default? Also, is there a way to auto fill the 'work completed by' line based on current user signed in and auto fill the date?
The yellow/orange highlighted font on the attached 'screenshot 2025-02-21 105837' is the auto size and location I would like the font to be.
The yellow highlighted font on attachment 'Screenshot 2025-02-21 1032025' you can see is too small and the far left of the line.

Hi there,
Hope you are doing well and thanks for reaching out.
The default font size in Adobe Acrobat typically depends on the tool you’re using. If you're using the "Add Text" feature, the font size is set automatically based on the document’s properties but can be adjusted manually.
To change the font size for added text:
For form fields, you can change the default font size by:
If you're referring to comments or annotations, the font size can be modified in Preferences under Commenting settings.
The auto fill line, based on the current user signed in and auto fill the date could be achieved by using the JavaScript.
Hope this information will help.

Hello. We don't want to use the 'Edit' or 'Add Text" because there is text can't be changed or move as I type new text on the blank line ____.
We do not want to "create a form" for each PDF we save. We save 25-50 of these "travelers" a day every day. This is all new to me and I'm not sure how to explain it.
