If you converted a paper document to PDF using the ClearScan option in Acrobat, you have one more task to do before you can edit or touch up any text in the document. During the conversion to PDF, ClearScan converted the fonts in the document to custom fonts. You must replace the custom fonts with fonts that you have on your computer.
Here are some related videos:

Why can't I locate a contact phone number for Tech Support for the Adobe PDF Pack I purchased on 10-28-2014? Customer Service should be ready available to assist customers. Jess Hawes 619-972-0635.

I subscribed to Acrobat Pro and am unable to edit the document that I scanned. I thought this purchase would enable me to edit a pdf document. Help!

I just downloaded (purchased) Acrobat Pro to edit a pdf in Microsoft Word which I must edited. Please tell me how to go about this. I am signing in, but cannot edit the documents.
