Where is the TouchUp Text tool in Acrobat X?
You can continue to edit text in PDF documents in Acrobat X. The functionality remains the same that you’re used to in earlier versions of Acrobat. You can edit the text, or change the text attributes.
The TouchUp Text tool is now called “Edit Document Text“, and is located under Tools > Content > Edit Document Text.
- To edit the text, click on the text and insert/delete the text. Acrobat X highlights the text that you’ve selected for editing.
- To modify text attributes, select the text, right-click and choose Properties. The TouchUp Properties dialog box opens.

Notes
- If you have lots of fonts installed on your system, it can take a little while before all of them are loaded. So be a little patient…
- You can edit text only if the font used for that text is installed on your system.
- If the font is only embedded or subsetted in the PDF, you can make changes to text attributes.
- Be aware of any legal issues if you’re using propriety fonts.
- It is more efficient to edit the source file if you’re planning to edit entire pages or document. This works best if you just want to touch up the text.
See Edit Text in Acrobat X online help for more details.

Extract images from a PDF
Acrobat X provides built in functionality to extract images from a PDF. There are many times when you would want to extract images from a PDF. For example, if you’re a clutz like me, you could have deleted all the image source files.
- Open the PDF in Acrobat X.
- Choose Tools > Document Processing > Export All Images
- Enter a file name, location, and click Save.
For more information see the help topic.
NOTE: If you can’t see the Document Processing panel, in the tools pane, chances are that:
- You’re trying this in Adobe Reader X. This functionality is not available in Reader X.
- The panel is hidden. Click the panel fly-out menu indicated by the arrow.
Change PDF Viewer back to Adobe’s in Google Chrome
On 10th December 2010 I noticed that Google Chrome, in it’s latest update (version 8.0.552.215), slipped in an integrated PDF viewer. So your PDF files are not rendered in the browser using the Adobe plug-ins. So if you’re wondering, for example, why 3D models won’t render, or embedded SWFs are not playing, you should revert to the good old Adobe PDF plug-in.
If you want to revert to the good old Adobe plugins, here’s what you do:
- In the Chrome address bar, type chrome://plugins
- Disable Chrome PDF Viewer.
- Enable the Adobe Acrobat/ Adobe Reader plugin.
Disable Chrome PDF Viewer
Easy as Pie :-)
