How to remove empty space in beginning of separate text words?

Explorer ,
Jul 24, 2017 Jul 24, 2017

Good day, having a issue after opening a PDF file i see such points at beginning of each text word to remove i found 2 ways.

1st. text edit one by one and remove.

2nd. touch up tool, touch each invisible empty text point and delete.

Both of this methods are slow time consuming touch up tool is very useful but i don't see the empty space with dots they are not highlighted.

What is the solution for this to detect and remove them all at once?
Is there maybe other tool that can remove this empty space?

If I'm understanding your question correctly, you may want to try Find and Replace (Edit > Find and Replace).

  1. In the window that opens, type a space in the Find field
  2. Leave the Replace field blank
  3. Press the Find button to find the first instance
  4. Press Replace All
  5. Press the Done button

This should get rid of all the spaces throughout the file.

If you are talking about single empty spaces, you can do Edit > Search and Replace. Search for empty space and replace with nothing.

Opening .pdf files can be risky, but I think that's not the point in this case.
