Reviews and commenting

Add a line, arrow, or shape

Note: In Reader, drawing tools are available only in PDFs that have commenting enabled. PDFs in a review workflow

typically include commenting rights.

When selecting a drawing tool, consider the effect you want.

1 Choose Comment > Drawing Markups, 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 the drawing tool, choose Properties,

and set the desired options in the Properties dialog box.

2 Draw in the PDF:

• 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 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.

• To draw free-form lines using the Pencil tool , drag where you want to begin drawing. You can release the

mouse button, move the pointer to a new location, and continue drawing. To erase parts of the drawing, select

the Pencil Eraser tool

and drag across the areas of the drawing that you want to remove.

3 To edit or resize the markup, select it and drag one of the handles to make your adjustments.

4 To add a pop-up note to the markup, select the Hand tool, and double-click the markup.

5 (Optional) Click the close button in the pop-up note. A note icon appears to the right of the markup to indicate 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 within the selection, and choose Group.
