Hi 👋 all, Is there anyway I can change my Barclaycard online PDF statements to look like this 



Without changing my Barclays statements to large print? 

As my Barclaycard Online PDF statements have changed to look like this without my consent!



is this not possible? I am not Happy 😡 about it but will accept it if can’t be done

    I understand they can change layout! 

    But the top picture was large print & they changed it to normal print without telling me & told me I am not allowed to change it back unless I do Barclays as well which I don’t wanna do 

    as that would come in a booklet with largen print letters in black & white! Not actual statement & they can’t do large print online PDF statements

    You could use a pdf editor, but why? Changing a statement and sending it to someone else potentially could be considered fraudulent or change the context of the statement.

    The issue is they changed my settings without telling me (I am Autistic) & if something is gonna change I like to be told!

    I have had Barclaycard Large print statement’s since 2021 & like layout & easier to read etc! 

    Sadly Barclays don’t off colour large print statements just a booklet in black & white with large font for the transactions & details etc!

    I don’t want to use PDF editor (I blanked personal info out for this post to show the 2 different statement layouts) & I would never send my bank/credit card statements to anyone unless necessary but only official copies

    I assume you want to print hard copies of your statements?  As a suggestion what about using poster mode in Adobe Acrobat?  Looking at your screen grab, if you print 2x2 then the first column would be close to what you seek.

  • Have you considered using a magnifying app on your PC or phone to zoom in on the PDF statements.
