Add a text markup comment
1. In the Comment tab, select a type of text markup. Then click and drag from the
beginning of the text you want to mark up.
2. (Optional) Select the Hand command, Select Annotation command or the
corresponding Text Markup tool, right-click the markup and choose Open Popup
Note (Alternatively, just double-click the markup to open the pop-up note). Type
text in the pop-up note. You can also use the Select Text and Image command
to copy and paste text from a PDF into the note, or copy the note using Ctrl
+ C in other applications. Text that you input in the pop-up note will be shown in
the default font and size specified in the Comment preferences. If you need to
format the text in the pop-up note, select the text and choose the desired option
in the Format tab in the right panel. When you change the font and size for text
in the current pop-up note, Foxit PDF Editor will remember the font and size, and
apply them in the new pop-up notes until you change it or restart the application.
After you change the font and size, the text format for the pop-up notes listed in
the Comments panel will be changed accordingly as well. For highlighted text, a
small sticky note will be shown around the text if it includes text comments in its
pop-up note.
3. (Optional) When you select a text markup comment, you will find a toolbar floating
right above the comment, which allows you to change the color for the comment.

that appears in the right panel when you select a comment or are making a
comment.
Tip: When the Format tab in the right panel is closed or hidden, you can click on
anywhere along the left border of the right panel to show the Format tab, or click the
