Adding Text with the Edit Toolbar

When you've completed one of the methods under "Preparing the Document," the document is open with the
Edit toolbar. (You can also display the Edit toolbar by clicking the Edit tool on the View or Thumbnail
toolbars.) Most of the tools are the same, but there are some special Edit tools that let you add text to faxes.

Reset tool

As you follow the steps below, you may find it useful to zoom in on (magnify) an
area of text. First, click the Zoom tool. Then hold down the left mouse button,
select the area you want to magnify, and release the mouse button. The area you
selected will be magnified. Remember, the smaller the area you select, the greater
the zoom. To return to normal view, click the Reset tool.

1.

Optionally, use the

Page Turning/Jump to Page

tool to move to display a different page.

2.

Optionally, use the

Font

tool to change the font of the added text. (The font of the

fax itself will not change.)

3.

Optionally, use the

Size

tool to change the type size of the added text. (The type size of the

fax itself will not change.)

4.

Click the

Text

tool.

5.

Place the cursor in the location where you want to add text and click the left mouse button. (Remember,
you can't insert text in the document; if you position your cursor on existing text, your added text will be
superimposed on the existing text.)

6.

Start typing. The text that you add is shown in red. Text wrapping does not work when you're adding
text, so when you reach the end of a line, you must press the

Enter

key to start a new line.

Note:

As you type, you can backspace to delete the text you're adding, but once you click your mouse
button outside the text, you will not be able to change or delete the added text, except by closing
and reopening the fax.

7.

When you have finished adding text in the current location, click the left mouse button outside the text.

8.

To add text in another location, repeat steps 5 through 7.

9.

When you have finished adding text, if you want to send the fax now, go on to step 10. Otherwise, to
save your changes without sending the fax, choose

File/Close

. You are prompted, "Save changes to

document?" Click the

Yes

button. The Save As dialog box appears. Enter a filename (changing the drive

and/or directory, if desired) and click the

OK

button. If the filename you chose already exists, you'll be

asked if you want to replace the existing file. Click the

Yes

button.
