Editing text with the TouchUp Text tool
Edit text
You can add or replace text only if the font used for that text is installed on your system. If the font isn’t installed on
your system but is embedded or subsetted in the PDF, you can make changes only to color, word spacing, character
spacing, baseline offset, or font size.
You can edit text on rotated lines in the same way as on horizontal lines, and you can edit text using vertical fonts in
the same way as text using horizontal fonts. The baseline offset or shift for vertical fonts is left and right, instead of
up and down for horizontal fonts.
