This didn’t affect how it looked, but rather the order in which it was created, thus the order in which it could be selected. I know it affected ‘form fill’ fields, but I think it could also affect flow of text if I chose to (which I never did). I haven’t used Adobe products for years, but I vaguely remember when I was using Acrobat Pro to create documents I had the option of controlling the ‘flow’ of text. Use Acrobat PDF software at your desk or on the go. Make your job easier with Adobe Acrobat DC, the trusted PDF editor and creator. You also need Pro if you want to use the app to do your OCR-ing, too.) Adobe Acrobat DC PDF software | Adobe Acrobat And seemingly they know it, as the price they continue to charge for using Acrobat remains excessively high years later… even Standard DC is $13/mth, while Pro DC is just 2 bucks more at $15/mth (both provided you take an annual commitment), so even if you only need the Standard tools it’s $156 (making $180 for Pro little more!) – but that’s PER YEAR, so pretty expensive for average users. While Adobe giveth in open-sourcing PDF format years ago, they then taketh-away, as ultimately they have (reliable!) control of PDF editing software compared to every other app out there.

I’m not a developer so have no real understanding of the various backend ‘engines’ that make these apps work – presumably that info may be commercially sensitive, hence apps don’t make it clear, unfortunately. text moves slightly out of place, ruining the layout.text colour changes from a colour back to black when re-editing.Just some of the regular problems I get (typically after saving & reopening a doc): Even with my very modest needs, issues remain. I don’t author docs as PDF, just save from other apps or from scans done on a (ScanSnap) doc scanner, which I then use ‘markup’ tools in each app to add additional text or whatever as needed. I know the story above is from some time ago, but still in 2022 I have editing issues in all my PDF applications where markup gets screwed-up, with even Preview being continually unreliable for marking-up documents that need to be accessed and used days/weeks/years after their creation. Just wondered if Preview (and other PDF apps for that matter) are considered “stable” at the moment?
