In a document where text has been highlighted using previous versions of Adobe Pro, the thickness option appeared in the highlight properties.(see below)

In the same document, with my current version of Adobe Pro, when new highlights are adaded to text the thickness option no longer appears.(see image below) note, both screen shots were taken today.

Current Adobe Pro version is 2024.002.20687

How do I get this thickness option back within highlight properties?

Thank you for your reply.

You said the highlight thickness was available in "previous versions." I'm running 2023.006.20320 and I do not have that thickness option. In fact, I've never before seen a thickness option.

 

What is the version of Acrobat that you have that shows the highlight thickness option?

I went back to Acrobat XI and didn't see it there, either. Also, thickness of what, exactly? This property doesn't really make much sense for a Highlight annotation.

Makes all the sense in the world if you want to control the thickness of the highlight making a document look cleaner not overlapping multiple lines with a thicker higlight....  Screen shot below shows difference between 8 pt and 16 pt...
