Hi,

When measuring a distance in a pdf drawing, how to change the color of the dimension text. The background drawing is in black and white, I want the dimension text stand out, not mix up with the background. The arrows and the dimension lines are in red, also need the dimension text in red.

Regards,

John

    Hi John,

    While using the Measuring Tool, you can change the color of measurement line by changing the preferences setting.

    Grids, guides, and measurements in PDFs, Adobe Acrobat 

    But what you are looking for is to change the color of the text used to mention dimension.

    What you are looking for, that can not be achieved. Acrobat's Measuring preferences doesn't allow you to change such settings.
