PDF-Forms is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com/ __________________________________________________________________
What it does is add several buttons on your Acrobat toolbar. One of them being a Text Editing button. This gives a feel similar to graphics layout program such as Adobe Pagemaker of Quark Xpress were after clicking on this button you highlight the intended text. This, then enables you to change the type characteristics such as type size, spacing and most importantly, fonts (typeface). -Joe -----Original Message----- From: Suntower West [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 10, 2003 2:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [PDF-Forms] Font Selection in PDF Form PDF-Forms is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com/ __________________________________________________________________ Thanks for this. The client 'simply' wants a 'font selector' button to appear next to various data entry fields which would allow them to alter the font in that text box for them to print a copy at their desk. They would not be allowed to -save- the changed font in the PDF. They sort of want the PDF to have a bit more flexibility, as though it were a word processing document. Do you know if PitStop will do the above? (It is not clear from the blurb I read on their web site). ---JC At 02:32 PM 07/10/03 -0700, you wrote: >PDF-Forms is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com/ >__________________________________________________________________ > >Sounds like you want to be able to have editing control over your font >usage.
