Highlight, cross out, or underline text
Note: In Reader, commenting tools are available only in PDFs that have commenting enabled. PDFs in a review workflow
typically include commenting rights.
You can use the Highlight Text tool, Cross-Out Text tool, and the Underline Text tool to add comments by themselves
or in conjunction with notes. The Cross-Out Text tool and the Underline Text tool don’t appear in the Comment &
Markup toolbar, by default.
You can add a highlight with a note or you can cross out text by selecting the text using the Select tool or Text Edits
tool, right-clicking, and then choosing that option from the menu that appears. However, if you’re marking up a lot of
text, the specialized tools are faster and easier to use.
1 Choose Tools > Comment & Markups, and select the Highlight Text tool
, the Cross Out Text tool
, or the
Underline Text tool
.
Note: If you want to apply more than one comment using the Cross-Out Text tool or the Underline Text tool, choose
View
> Toolbars > Properties Bar, and select Keep Tool Selected in the Properties toolbar after you select the tool. The
Highlight Text tool stays selected after you make the first comment.
2 Drag from the beginning of the text you want to mark up. Ctrl-drag to mark up a rectangular area of text. This is
especially useful when marking up text in a column.
3 (Optional) To add a note, double-click the markup to add text in a pop-up note.
