Question

I am trying to somehow enable sticky note, which has a shape like a square, rather then elipse.

 

I just installed Adobe Acrobat on new desktop and when I add sticky note/comment to my document, I get that elipse like comment icon, where as on my other desktop, I have squre-like shaped comment icon.

 

Is it possible to somehow enable square icon instead of elipse one?

Hi Lukag,

 

Thank you for reaching out.

 

As you wish to change the icon appearance for the sticky note, use the steps as suggested below:

- Right-click on the sticky note comment icon.

- Select properties from the drop-down list that appears.

- Go to Appearance and select the required icon.

- Check the box for "Make Properties Default".

- Click on the OK button.

 

 

Also, please ensure that you are using the latest version of the application as it provides you the shape like a square box by default. 

Let us know if you need any help.

 

Thanks,

Meenakshi

Thateliptical ison is from a previous version of Acrobat. If you are using the latest version of Acrobat, that old icon n longer exosts. You can see the difference here: https://documentgeek.blogspot.com/2019/03/after-more-than-decade-new-comment-icon.html

Adobe designed the icons a few years back. Sorry.
