In Acrobat Pro 2017, how can I move text from the top of page 2 to the bottom of page 1. I've tried everything and can't figure this out. The text is in a box but I'm not allowed to move the box to page 1. I also, couldn't find any help searching in support.

Hi Cricket,
I do that a lot. Acrobat tries to put it on the same page if it can. Here’s what I do:
- Select the frames, then Cut or Copy
- Go to Page 1. Make sure you are on Page 1 or it will paste to Page 2. I go to the page-at-a-time view instead of scrolling.
- If you are in Fit in Window, it will paste to the exact place on Page 1 as it was on Page 2. Everything is selected and it can be moved if you are careful. If you deselect, then undo and paste again for a fresh start.
- If you zoom in at the bottom of Page 1 first, it will paste there.
Let me know if this works.
