Replace custom fonts with local fonts
Documents scanned to PDF using the ClearScan option in Acrobat can’t be edited until you replace the fonts. During
the conversion to PDF, ClearScan converts the fonts in the document to custom fonts. To edit the scanned text, replace
the custom fonts with fonts that you have on your computer. These fonts are called
system
or
local
fonts.

Use the TouchUp Text tool to select the text you want to edit.
2
Right-click/Command-click the selected text, and choose Properties. Make sure the Text tab opens.
3
Open the Font menu, and select a font below the line that closely matches the custom font.
Replace custom fonts (A) with local fonts (B).

In the Font Size menu, select a size that closely matches the custom font.

Leave the other properties in the Text tab as they are.
