Where has the Typewriter Tool gone in Acrobat XI?

By Donna Baker – September 20, 2012

In this tutorial, learn how to edit PDF by adding text to a PDF using the Add Text Comment tool, previously known as the Typewriter tool. The Typewriter tool has been replaced by a full-fledged fast text engine. Just select the Add Text Comment tool from the Comments panel, click the Add Text Comment tool, click the page where you want to add your text and type away. Format as needed. The Typewriter tool is also available in the free Reader.
