Question

Line Thickness Flexibility Gone

We have made extensive use of the line thickness flexibility in versions of Reader thru XI.  Unfortunately, with Adobe Reader DC the ability to put a decimal point in front of the "1" in the line thickness of a measured line or drawn feature is not supported.  Is there any reason for this?  Is there any work around?  The line thickness at "1" point is way too wide for our application of Reader.  Thanks.

Hi jeffr80632096,

Sorry for the delay in response.

It seems that you are referring to the line thickness option provided in the comment tool.

Please try to update the application to the latest patch released and check if you still experience the issue.

Refer this help document for more information on updates: Release Notes | Adobe Acrobat, Reader

If the issue persists, please let us know the option you are using under Comment tool with which you experiencing the issue.

Let us know if you referring to something else.

Meenakshi - thanks for the reply.  The tool giving me a fit is found under Tools / Measure / Measuring Tools / Area in an enhanced geospatial PDF.  The funny thing is the other two tools on the Measuring Tools sub tool bar (point to point distance and perimieter) work fine with .1 in the line width.  Only the Area Tool responds that the number must be between 1 and 12.  Again, adding .1 to line width int he area measure has worked for the last five release of Reader.

Hi jeffr86088203,

Sorry as I am not able to understand exactly what you are referring to.

Could you please let us know the option under measuring tool you are talking about.

It will be helpful if you can share the screenshot for the same.
