    Default Adding text to a scanned document...

    Hello,

    I have scanned some documents in and converted them to .pdf...These documents are part of a report that I am putting together and have to have
    "Exhibit A" at the top of the page....I can not figure out how to add a line of text to a .pdf (if it is possible..) I do see that text touchup tool, but that is not what I need...I really need to add a new text box or something like that...What am I missing ??
    thx
    Mike

    Hold down the Control key as you place the text edit tool. That will give you a text box.
