How to turn off Adobe Acrobat text boxes when using "Add Text" tool

   At my office, on my PC's acrobat when I select "Edit" acrobat will show me all the existing dialogue that I can edit within its own generated text boxes however when I select the "Add Text" function all of those boxes disappear allowing me to freely create my text anywhere on the document.

 I am trying to locate the setting(s)/Preference(s) that allows my PC's acrobat to have that functionality so I may replicate the settings on a coworkers computer as when I go through the same setup as above the text boxes do not disappear.

I'm not sure, if there's a way, however, when you have time, can you record your issue and share here for me to take a closer look of your issue.

Good morning Subrato,

 

   After going through my own PC's preferences page by page and my co-workers preferences I was able to determine that I was able to turn off these "boxes" by setting the "Page vs Document: Do not read the document". Thank you for your assistance, you may consider this matter resolved.

In case you are looking for a setting that disables "showing bounding boxes", there's gear icon on left side while Edit tool is open.

This is exactly what I need. That bounding box shows up when I select text. I don't know where that gear icon is.
