Adding Articles to a PDF Document

Although Acrobat’s editing features do not enable you to physically restructure the layout of the text in a PDF document in any way, its Articles feature does enable you to restructure the online reading experience. As an essential part of the Accessibility features included in Acrobat 6, articles are designed to make the reading of long, disjointed sections of text, especially those set in newspaper columns that span pages, a smooth experience in Acrobat 6 or Adobe Reader 6.
Articles accomplish this by breaking up sections of text into discrete blocks that are displayed in sequence as you click the Hand pointer, requiring no scrolling and no resetting of the page view. This eliminates the need for you to interrupt your reading experience with any type of scrolling or any other kind of page manipulation in order to get to the following section of text, a common experience in normal online reading where when you reach the end of one column, you must reset the page by scrolling back up (and often over) to continue reading at the top of the next column.

Its good to know that we can restructure any pdf file but can we save the restructured file and what if the files was digitally signed.Will the new file also signed or not?
