Acrobat pdf editing

Click and hold the Rotation pointer , drag in the direction you want it to rotate. Place the pointer over any of the circular selection handles, and drag the handle to resize the text block. If you want to mark up selected text with highlight, strikethrough, or underline, use the Comment tool.

The actual text doesn't change in the PDF. Those mark ups only indicate where and how the text should be edited in the source file.

For more information, see Highlight, strikethrough, or underline text. You can use annotation and drawing markup tools to add comments. Comments are notes and drawings that communicate ideas or provide feedback for PDFs. You can type a text message using the Sticky Note tool. Alternatively, you can use a drawing tool to add a line, circle, or other shape and then type a message in the associated pop-up note. For more information, see Use annotation and drawing markup tools to add comments in PDFs.

You can add items to a numbered or bulleted list, create list items, convert an existing paragraph to a list item, convert an existing list item to a paragraph, and convert from one list type to another.

Acrobat detects paragraphs and lists separately. Therefore, both paragraph and list may appear in the same bounding box while editing. After you save or save as the changed file and reopen it, the paragraph and list items are displayed in separate bounding boxes. You can also use Keyboard to add a list item.

Acrobat lets you add a header and footer throughout a PDF. Headers and footers can include a date, automatic page numbering, Bates numbers for legal documents, or the title and author. You can selectively apply a background to only specific pages or page ranges in one or more PDFs.

A PDF supports only one background per page, but the backgrounds can vary from page to page. For more information, see Add backgrounds to PDFs. A watermark is a text or an image that appears either in front of or behind existing document content, like a stamp. You can add multiple watermarks to one or more PDFs, but you must add each watermark separately. For more information, see Add watermarks to PDFs.
