Re: Adobe Reader line wrapping

I like to change fonts, usually to make them bigger. Occasionally, I
need to make a font bigger than the line length will allow so but
instead of wrapping, I get a horizontal scroll bar. Obviously this
doesn't work well. In MS Word, the line just wraps as it gets bigger
and bigger. I was wondering if this is possible in Adobe Reader 8.0
somehow.

No, that's not what a PDF is. In Word, you input letters and Word lays
them out on the page for you, so if the letters are bigger there are
fewer to a line. But with a PDF, the whole document is laid out
completely, letter for letter, word for word, and page for page,
*before* you ever see it. You have no control, and you can't change
anything: you are just viewing a frozen "picture" of the document. In
effect a PDF is electronically pre-printed output. m.

Yes, understood. But what if I opened it in a PDF editor like Acrobat
or something else? Would that allow the modifications I'm seeking?
