What is up with this new highlighter tool?!?!

My adobe acrobat pro updated today and I am extremely annoyed with this new highlighter feature. We have to constantly highlight important information on a document and the bold yellow color would never lighten the color of the actual text that I am highlighting on the document; if anything it would enhance it. Now with this update I see that the letters on the document have a hint of grey to them as opposed to their black color and it's quite annoying. Is there any way that we can get this feature back? I have tried changing the opacity but the dark I go the more the letters get erased. There should be a transparency option along with the opacity. Can someone please help!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much, if it helps I notice that this happens a lot with images that I screenshot and not the ones that I download. Hope that helps! 🙂

Yes, I do a lot of highlighting on scanned reports and it is exactly what Carrie mentioned. Was fine for the last 3 years but now the highlight blots out the underlying words on scanned documents. Same as Carrie, no issue on non-scanned PDFs. A fix would be greatly appreciated.
