Hello, I have the latest android version of Acrobat Reader.

 

I can highlight on multiple pdfs but appearently, I have one that I'm not able to. In windows I have no problems with the same exact file (cloud).

 

In windows, text is recognized but not in Android. It is just recognized once I long-press and click on "Text" and try to highlight.

 

Actually, annotations are made but they are invisible. I can see them in the list of file annotations but there are not visible at reading. Highligts, strikes, draws... no one.

 

The file has permissions to comment, and there are no problems on Windows.
