Is there a way to change the default highlight color when you use the "find" feature? Its light blue, and Id like to make it a different color.

    Perfect! Kind of...It was already unchecked, so I went ahead and checked it, and now theres a white box around the word that Im seeking. Since my original PDF file consists of white words against a dark blue background, the white box makes it much easier to see the selected words. Thank you for your help!
