But I can only type along the line. If I want to format the question like this, I cant. I need to recognise in ADVANCE that I need to leave a space so that I have room to put in the plus sign.

Yet it has some good uses if you already have access to it.
If you open up a blank page or a PDF worksheet where there is more written work than number layout then Adobe Acrobat – Fill and Sign tool may help with things like this:
do we need new products developed or do we just need to fix the ones that are the mainstream products used in the first place so that we don’t add too much cost and make them accessible for everyone easily?
