Hello, 

 

I am trying to create a resume (not a default template, designed as a Word docx originally) but when I type out words, it makes some letters appear bold. Please refer to the attachment below. 

 

Do you see how the n, d, and s are all bolded? 

 

Any assitance what be appreaciated.

 

Thank you!

Hi there

 

Thanks for reaching out! Based on your description and the screenshot, it looks like the issue could be related to font rendering or formatting inconsistencies in the document.

Could you please share the steps you're following to create or edit the document? A short video recording would be very helpful for better understanding.

Also, try making all the adjustments in MS Word first, then convert the file to a PDF using the Acrobat ribbon in the MS Word toolbar > Create PDF and see if that works.

If the issue continues, please share the version of your operating system and Acrobat Pro. You can check your Acrobat version by going to Help > About Acrobat. Make sure it’s updated to the latest version (24.05.20414) by selecting Help > Check for updates. After updating, restart your computer and try again.

Additionaly for future reference and self-help please check the help page https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/faq.html

 

Let me know how it goes!

I have exported the file > I go to edit> I go to edit PDF> and now I have text boxes I can add. When I type in those text boxes, then it displays the "bolded" letters. 

 

I hope that helps. My curent text settings.
