Hi All,

I'm currently trying to create an editable pdf wedding invitation. After creating the form, filling the text boxes, formatting, and saving I tried to edit the text boxes properties form "Edit PDF" option on the but look like my text boxes are not recognized, only clip art. When I try to select one of the text boxes, it selects the whole doc.

Do I miss something?

Thanks.

Best Regards

For changing the form fields use Tools > Prepare Form

Are these fillable form fields? If so you cannot use Edit PDF., which isn’t for form design or form filling. Just type to fill them.

Thank you for your reply. yes, they are fillable form fields. The thing is I want to extend the spacing between the characters inside the text box using the AV option. Any way to get around this?

You can try the rich text format in the text fields.
