Can you remove all highlights at once instead of one at a time in a PDF?

[kevinatwork]

I have 12 PDF's that are 300-600 pages each where someone has highlighted large portions in gree, blue and yellow. I want to keep all yellow highlights and remove all green and blue. Is there a way to do this without having to delete the highlights from each individual page? Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

This could help you. You will have to this on a Per document basis tho but should work.

Click the comments tab at the bottom left of page. Choose Show and choose by type and choose TExt editing MArkups. Then choose Sort and select Color. This will nest all greens, red etc inside one comment with an expandable + nest to it. Now just click the Green and press the trash key, repeat for Blue. Hope that helps?

Man you just saved me hours off my working hours. I have 140+ bank statements that are half highlighted with edits, comments, invoices attached etc and needs to be restored back to original. Life saver! Thank you so much 😄
