Updates to the annotation tools in Acrobat (May 2016 release)
Tools relocated from the Comment toolbar
To simplify the commenting tool set, the following tools were redesigned:
- Text correction tools: Text correction commands (Replace Text, Insert Text, and Strikethrough Text) are enabled by default inside the Comment app.
- Add Note to Replace Text: The Add Note to Replace Text command is in the right-click context menu.
- Add Note to Text: The Add Note to Text command is in the right-click context menu.
Using the text correction commands
The text correction commands are enabled by default inside the Comment app:
- Select the text and start typing for Replace Text.
- Press Delete for Strikethrough Text.
- Start typing without selecting text for Insert Text.
Known issues
- For the Add Note to Replace Text command, only the color of the strikethrough changes and not the color of the caret.
- The text correction commands don’t work if you double-click to select the text.
