I have an AEM form that needs some changes to static text. I am not able to make any edits to the static texts since I have the Lock Text under Edit menu disabled. Any ideas on how to get it enabled so that I can unlock text ?

Appreciate the respone.

 

Thanks !

This happens when the form was created by importing an existing PDF into Designer which is now used a background artwork. You can't change this background image nor the behavior of Designer. The available editing functions in Designer are limited on static forms.

Hi Jyothi,

Welcome to AEM Community !!
Is that OOTB AEM Form component?

If possible, please share a screen capture.

Hello,

Here is the screen shot. I am not able to add any Texts in the page area. I can change/add fields but not the static objects.

Thanks!

@jvenkatrao You won't be able to edit it due to background restrictions of the kind of pdf being used. Create a new pdf or ask the developer to give you the template for the file.
