Squares, ovals and arrows not appearing in sent document when sent to another person

I'm having the same problem. it's super weird.  I added some rectangles and arrows along with red text to annotate and point out parts of a document.  Then I used the redact function to hide some personal info in the document,  which then automatically prompts a new redacted version to be saved, and in the redacted version all the rectangles and arrows I had drawn disappeared (fortunately the red text I had typed remained though!).  I was then forced to then  redraw the rectangles and arrows and I saved the document again.  Next, I combined the PDF document with another PDF, and in the combined version, all the arrows and rectangles had disappeared again!  But now, when i tried to re-draw the rectangles and arrows, the software simply wouldn't let me draw them!  So bizzare and frustrating! 

Hi Stuart

We are sorry for the trouble. As described the drawing marks that you have added to the pdf file doesn't appear in the sent copy.

We have tried to reproduce the issue on our end and its working fine. Would you mind sharing the workflow/steps you are doing to add the comment drawing marks to the PDF and the steps you are doing to share the PDF with a different user?

For testing purposes, please try to add add the comment drawing marks to the PDF and send the copy as an email attachment to yourself and check.
