Comment Icon Very Small on Imported Pictures

I imported a number of pictures into a PDF and want to create comments for my colleagues to read. When placing a comment, the comment icon isn't visible unless I zoom in. My current zoom is set to 11.3% for the image to fit to screen. I'm guessing the issue is due to the image just being too large, but I'm not sure how to re-size it (I don't have photoshop).

Select your sticky note, open the JS console (Ctrl+J), enter this code, select it and press Ctrl+Enter:

var r = selectedAnnots[0].rect;

r[2] += r[2]-r[0];

r[3] += r[3]-r[1];

selectedAnnots[0].setProps({rect: r})

Will this just make it bigger on my laptop? Or is the scripting embedded into the file?

It will change the actual size of the comment in the file, not just on your computer.
