Editing and moving text
Sometimes we make some mistakes when inserting text and we need to edit those mistakes. You can do this a few ways in Drawboard PDF.
When using the text tool
When you have the text tool selected all you need to do is click once, on the text you wish to edit, and the text box will be placed in edit mode, where you can edit and update your text.
When using the select tool
If you are using the pan or select tool, you can double click on the textbox and it will be placed in edit mode. If you click once it will bring up a context menu, which has an edit text button on it.
This will allow you to edit the inserted text
If you have entered your text and you realize it is too small or the color is wrong, use the pan tool to select the text This will bring up a menu where you can select the "edit properties" button, and you can edit the color and size of the text.
