Adding a single-line text box
Add a new single-line text box as follows:
| 1. | Select the Text Plus tool  in the Quick access toolbar. |
| 2. | Click in the document to create a single-line text box with a fixed height. This adjusts its width when typing. |
| 3. | If the font size is too large, a small red text overflow box will be displayed at the right edge of the text box. You can change the size of the text box with the handle on each of the four sides. |
Using the text tool
You can add new text at any time by dragging a new text box of the desired size with the mouse.
| 1. | Select the Text edit tool  in the Quick access toolbar. |
| 2. | Click in the document and drag the text box to the desired size. |
| 3. | Before typing, select the desired font and size on the ribbon tab Home | group Character. |
| 4. | If there is too much text, the text box will be extended downwards. You can adjust the size of the text box by dragging one of its handles. The text box will then remain as large as you set it. |
| 5. | If you see the red text overflow box at the right edge of the text box, it means that the text does not fit completely into the box. Resize the box by dragging the handles at the edges of the text box. |
Selecting the right language
FreePDF: Spell check and hyphenation are not included in FreePDF.
Remember the following when editing a PDF written in several different languages:
▪Hyphenation only works if the correct language was selected with the command File | Options on the Spelling tab. If the desired language is unavailable, we recommend that you disable hyphenation.
Note: Hyphenation only works if you have formatted text as justified.
▪The spell check also requires the correct language to be specified with the command File | Options on the Spelling tab.
▪FlexiPDF only supports the editing of texts that are read from left to right. The editing of Arabic and Hebrew texts is thus not supported.
Unicode support
FreePDF supports the copying and pasting of double-byte characters.
On a Windows computer, a double-byte character can be typed directly by holding down the Alt key while entering the decimal value of the character via the numeric keypad. (Make sure that the Num key is enabled.) The character is inserted as soon as you release the Alt key.
For example: Alt 0190 = ¾
The character codes can be found via the Character Map utility of Microsoft Windows. For this purpose, enter the search term "character map" in Windows.
