Hi,

Is there any way to write on top of a PDF?

I know i can add a post-it, but then that is 2 steps to see it.

I want to write text above something on the PDF. Can that be done or no?

Open the Comment panel on the right and see all the tools available there. It's pretty self-explanatory...

For me it was the Tools panel. Click that and then click comment. That is the path. Found it now.

I rarely edit PDFs so this is newer to me.

Don't guess what version you have... Go to Help > About Acrobat Reader and it will tell you.

Ok, is that different than the sticky note?

Glad i checked this site because for some reason i didnt get an email that there was a response for this.

I dont see any ADD COMMENT tool. i had said i already know how to add the sticky note. That isnt what i want. I want to add text on top of the PDF. Also i wish it was easier to choose the highlight color , but i guess being in PDF format it makes things more difficult and many more steps.
