I scanned a text document at 600dpi with my Dell 2335dn MFP and somehow hidden form boxes are embedded all over my document. How do I remove them?

I am not sure if this is the problem I am having.

I converted a form from MS Word, when I opened it, there were 2 form fields already in the newly converted PDF.

The font size was set to 1986.5 (believe it or not). No matter what I do, I cant delete these fields. They are causing an error.

Is this thread responding to a similar issue? Where exactly is Prepare Form? Not under tools that I can see. Acrobat XI.

Well, I do not blame you, but in my case it is all I have. Hopefully someone else will know.
