a text edit annotation.
Delete text
1 In the Annotations panel, choose the Strikethrough tool .
2 Select the text to mark for deletion.
Delete text markups
If markup comments are stacked, delete the comments in the Comments list: Choose Comment > Comments List,
select the comment, and press Delete.
❖ Select the markup and press Delete.
Highlight, strikethrough, or underline text
Note: In Reader only Sticky Note and Highlight tools are available. Other 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, Strikethrough Text tool, and the Underline Text tool to add comments by
themselves or in conjunction with notes.
You can add a highlight with a note or you can cross out text or underline text by selecting the text using the Select
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 Comment > Annotations, and select the Highlight Text tool , the Strikethrough Text tool , or the
Underline Text tool .
Note: If you want to apply more than one comment using the Strikeout Text tool or the Underline Text tool, choose Keep
Tool Selected from the Options menu 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. Control-drag to mark up a rectangular area of text. This
feature is especially useful when you are marking up text in a column.
3 (Optional) To add a note, double-click the markup and add text in a pop-up note.
Stamp a document
Note: In Reader only Sticky Note and Highlight tools are available. Other commenting tools are available only in PDFs
that have commenting enabled. PDFs in a review workflow typically include commenting rights.
You apply a stamp to a PDF in much the same way you apply a rubber stamp to a paper document. You can choose
from a list of predefined stamps, or you can create your own stamps. Dynamic stamps obtain information from your
computer and from the Identity panel of the Preferences dialog box, allowing you to indicate name, date, and time
information on the stamp.
The Stamp tool appears in the Annotations panel by default.
