Hi there,

 

I'm trying to figure out how to remove a line after adding it using adobe the adobe Line tool. The help document I located indicated using the erase a drawing tool to remove drawing markups, however it is not removing the lines. Ii attached an example of the pdf with lines and the help doc I found. 

 

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi @tinabackyardlivingpa 

 

Hope you are doing well and thanks for reaching out.

 

The Pencil tool creates free-form drawings, and the Pencil Eraser tool removes the pencil markups. However, to remove the drawing markups like Arow, line , circle, etc you need to select the markups with the mouse by clicking on them and once selected press the delete key from the keyboard.

 

Hope this information will help.

Thats what I thought, but there no way to select the lines/arrows. I've clicked all over it, drag/dropped the curser to select all, zoomed in - nothing allows me to select/remove it. It was brought to my attention by my boss and I thought I could figure it out to teach him - but so far, no luck.

Sorry to hear that. Could you share a small video recording of your steps for more clarity? Also, please share the PDF file in question to check it on our end.
