STEPS: Setting up the Acrobat environment
1. Return to toolbar defaults. Open Acrobat. Position the cursor on any area in the Toolbar Well
and right-click to open a context menu (Ctrl+click for Macintosh) and select Reset Toolbars.
2. Open the More Tools window. Open the More Tools menu. From a context menu opened from
the Toolbar Well, select More Tools to open the More Tools window.
3. Add the tools you intend to use to the Comment & Markup toolbar. This is a personal choice.
Look over all the Comment & Markup tools and check just those tools you intend to use. Be cer-
tain to check the box for the Comment & Markup toolbar so the toolbar shows up when you
leave the More Tools window. (See Figure 1.36.)

4. Add some Edit tools. While still in the More Tools window, scroll to the Advanced Editing
Toolbar. One tool you’ll use frequently in almost all editing sessions is the Select Object tool
(denoted with an arrowhead icon). Click the check box for this tool. Other tools won’t be used
under most circumstances such as the Movie tool, Article tool, Link tool, and so on. Uncheck all
the tools you anticipate not using.
5. Add the Spell Check tool. Scroll to the Edit toolbar and check the Spell Check tool.
6. Exit the More Tools window. When certain about the tools you think you’ll use in a given edit-
ing session, click OK and all the toolbars open as floating toolbars.
7. Open the Properties Bar. Again open a context menu on the Toolbar Well and select Properties
Bar from the menu options. Note that this tool is not available in the More Tools window and
needs to be opened from a context menu or the View ➪ Toolbars submenu.
