Thank you, madam. Your videos qualify as ASMR too; in fact many people who claim to make ASMR videos on purpose here on TH-cam cannot hold a candle to you. Your calm and pleasantly modulated voice is a charm, no mistake :-)
When copy-pasting text from pdf (2 columns in one page) to word, the text is not getting pasted in an entire line rather only half line is getting used. How can I avoid that?
Great question! In Acrobat, you have to move the whole text box containing the text. I have a tutorial about working with text in Acrobat that you may find helpful: th-cam.com/video/-zjF5YN26rk/w-d-xo.html. However, that tutorial only applies to the older interface, not the new interface introduced a few months ago.
Questions. Currently my line spacing is set at 0.81 for this given paragraph. Every time I try to adjust it to a different decimal below 1 it says this field requires a number between 1 and 5. How is that the case if it's currently not meeting that requirement.
Thank you for watching! Adobe Acrobat does limit the line spacing to between 1 and 5, so it sounds like your document may have been created in a different application before being converted to a PDF. I hope Acrobat offers more line spacing flexibility in the future.
How does one do this over all the pages in the PDF? I have a 220pg PDF and I am unable to select all the text boxes in the file. I have tried select all (Ctrl-A) and it only selects the text on the current page. Obviously it is not feasible to individually edit the text on every page. Any ideas?
Thank you for watching! Adobe Acrobat's text boxes won't shift position the way that text will in a word processor such as Microsoft Word, so unfortunately it's not currently possible to simultaneously change the line spacing for a multipage PDF. My best suggestion is to convert the PDF to a Word doc, adjust the spacing, and then reconvert to a PDF. I wish you all the best with your document!
@@erinwrightwriting Hi Unforunately that is not an option. For whatever reason some of the fields (text boxes) are overalapping which means that there is all sorts of bugs when I export it to other formats (doc/xls). I have experimented with a single page and if i reduce the font size and standardise the line spacing then it exports correctly. So, in short, I need to do this formatting to the PDF in order to export it.
Thank you for watching! I have a separate tutorial that discusses working with text (including fonts) in Acrobat: th-cam.com/video/-zjF5YN26rk/w-d-xo.html.

I'm happy to hear that my videos serve a dual function. 🙂 As always, thank you for watching!

If a page has text that is supposed to be on the above page, how do you put it back on previous page?
