    Default Determining font of selected text?

    Someone sent me a PDF document that uses nearly 50 fonts. I need to create a new document that mimics the appearance of part of the original, but don't know what fonts were used. The File > Properties Fonts pane shows a list of all the fonts, but that doesn't help much.

    Is there any way to get the properties of selected text in a PDF document?

    Thanks.

    Highlight the text with the touch up text tool. Right click and choose properties.

    Perfect! Thank you. I just installed Acrobat and had not discovered that tool yet. My searches in the help files did not find anything.
