So my question is pretty simple, a lot of the time I need to put the same Call Out or Text Box, across several pages of a PDF.

Right now I am typing in a new Text or Call Out box on each page.

Is there any way to copy and paste a Text or Call Out box?

If not is there any other workaround, besdies typing out the same Text Box several times.

Thanks

Damien

Hi Damien,

Not sure if this is what you want but after you create the first Call Out or Text box activate the Object Select tool then right click on the box and choose Copy. Go to the next page where you want the box to be and hit Ctrl-V (paste). You may have to drag the next copy for exact placement on the new page.

Hope this helps,

Dimitri
