You can revert to the "old" Acrobat UI, since the new UI is a nightmare.

Hi @Ruth31147970fmtd,

This is because when you select adding text from the non-floating floating tools set, you'll have limited access to functionality.

Click on the "Edit" option on the upper left  side of the window

Then click on #1, the Add "Text" seen in the lower half below, and then look at the top of that region for #2 and you'll find all of the customizing tools you'll need.

Please let me know if this is what you were looking for. (And if it was, please mark my answer correct so that others looking for the same thing can easily find it.)
