Hi you clever guys - We can all upload docs and save as PFDs. I have always been able to convert a PFD with XP and up to Jun 20 (this year) with Wins 10.1 by inserting a text box. Last night, I discovered that facility, to insert a text box, has auto-been removed from my PC. When investigating, Microsoft's auto-updating end users with the choice of Windows Edge is to blame (probably to force we end-users to go online to use a PFD conversion package which one has to pay for (and quite a fiddly conversion operation). Anyone else discovered this issue? Anyone got any ideas to get round this issue. MS suggests restore but I doubt that would work?

I'm lost! PFD appears to be an obscure video format but, since your question refers to 'docs', I assume that you mean PDF. However I can't see any mention in your post of what you're trying to convert a PDF file TO (or possibly FROM?) and I can't see where 'inserting a text box' comes into it either. Please tell us more about exactly what it is that you're trying to...

Buenchico, sorry for my delay in answering but 26 Jun to 8 Jul 20 was the busiest period for a long time. Background to my question. I scan a doc to PC and saved as a PFD. When wanting to use the document as an exhibit, I used to be able to click on Insert and select "text". When moving the cursor over the PFD, I clicked on the PFD to exactly where I wanted to insert and type my text. I have been able to do that for years - the last time was Jun 20. As I said, that facility simply disappeared this month, Jul 20. Does this further data help you? Kindly tony_123.
