- Product
- Adobe Fill and Sign
- Device & OS
- iPadOS
- Scenario
- Filling out PDF forms on an iPad and needing to fit typed text neatly within the designated form fields.
- Observed behavior
- The user is seeking a way to reduce or enlarge the font size of newly inserted text in the PDF form.
Ensure you have the PDF document opened within the Adobe Fill and Sign app and have already tapped the screen to create a text field.
Adjust Font Size Using the Pop-up Formatting Controls
Use the built-in small and large 'A' icons that appear over your text box to quickly resize your text.
The Adobe Fill and Sign app handles text sizing dynamically through a simple pop-up menu rather than complex formatting toolbars. This pop-up gives you quick access to decrease or increase your typed text size.
Tap once on the text field you have added to the PDF form to bring up the formatting controls.
Look for the black pop-up box appearing directly above your text, which contains a small 'A' icon and a large 'A' icon.
Tap the small 'A' icon repeatedly to decrease the font size until it fits perfectly, or tap the large 'A' icon to increase the font size.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I change the font size of existing text in a PDF using Adobe Fill and Sign?
No, Adobe Fill and Sign is designed specifically for overlaying new text onto forms. It does not have the capability to edit or resize the original, pre-existing text embedded within the PDF file.
Will changing the text size affect the size of my signature?
No, adjusting the font size using the 'A' icons only affects typed text fields. Drawn signatures act as images and can be resized independently by dragging their corner handles.
Is there a way to set a permanent default font size in the app?
Adobe Fill and Sign does not offer a global settings menu to set a permanent default font size. However, it temporarily remembers the size you used last while you are actively working within the same document.
