What is the 'reflow' feature in Adobe Acrobat DC?

I magnified text in a PDF but found it difficult to read. I had to constantly scroll horizontally to read.

Can the reflow feature help make it easier to read when zooming in on text in a PDF?

Answer

Reflow a PDF

You can reflow a PDF so text converts temporarily into a single column that is the width of the document pane. The Reflow mode can make it easier to read when magnifying on a monitor, or on a mobile device, without scrolling horizontally to read the text. While in Reflow mode, you cannot save, edit, or print a document.

Readable text appears in the Reflow viewing pane.

From the Menu bar choose View > Zoom > Reflow

(keyboard shortcut CTRL + 4)
