Editing the dimention of rectangle in Acrobat pro

[pratik_14]

Using acrobat pro. My requirement is to create a rectangle on a pdf file of specified dimentions. For example, even if I draw a reactangle free handedly, after giving 10*10mm lenghth & height, the rectangle should measure 10*10mm. After right clicking on rectangle it is allowing me to only change colour, line thickness, style etc.  See the attached screenshot for better clarity.

You can't change the dimensions in the properties.

You can do it with a script. Select the Rectangle and then run this code from the JS Console and it will be resized to 10x10mm, aligned to the top-left corner of the original:

var mm = 2.83465;
var myAnnot = this.getAnnots()[0];
var r = myAnnot.rect;
r[2] = r[0]+(10*mm);
r[1] = r[3]-(10*mm);
myAnnot.setProps({rect: r});
