When selecting a drawing tool, consider the effect you want.
1 Choose Tools > Comment & Markup, and select a drawing tool:
• The Rectangle tool , the Oval tool , the Arrow tool , and the Line tool let you create simple shapes.
• The Cloud tool and Polygon tool create closed shapes with multiple segments. The Polygon Line
tool creates open shapes with multiple segments.
• The Pencil tool creates free-form drawings, and the Pencil Eraser tool removes the pencil markups.
To specify the line width, color, and other properties before you draw, right-click/Control-click the drawing tool,
choose Properties, and set the desired options in the Properties dialog box.

• To create a cloud or polygon shape, click to create the start point, move the pointer, and click to create each
segment. To finish drawing the shape, click the start point, or right-click/Control-click and choose Complete from
the menu. Double-click to end a polygon line.
• To draw a line, arrow, or rectangle, either drag across the area where you want the markup to appear, or click twice:
once to create the start point and once to create the end point.
• To draw a square or circle, or to draw a line that’s horizontal, vertical, or at a 45˚ angle, press Shift while you draw.

the presence of text in the pop-up note.
Note: To delete a drawing markup, select it and press Delete.
Group and ungroup markups
You can group two or more markups so that your comments function as a single comment. You might group
markups temporarily to move them to a new location or to modify their properties rather than editing each one
individually. Grouping also helps to distinguish your markups from other reviewers’ markups in a document review.
Note: You cannot group text edit markups.
Group markups
1 Using the Select tool or the Hand tool, select a markup.
2 Ctrl-click/Command-click to select the markups you want to group.
3 Right-click/Control-click within the selection, and choose Group.
