Drawing tools - shapes non existent on ACrobat reader for iPad?

[shawnnah36275676]

I'm subscribed to acrobat pro dc but unable to find where the drawing tools are when opening file on iPad. I'm a lighting designer and need to mark up floor plans when on-site via iPad and then open same file on desktop when I return to office. Why is this so difficult?? When I select comments the pencil/pen come up but not the shapes option. Any advice?

Hello Shawn, 

I hope you are doing well. As per the above description, I understand that you want to be able to edit PDFs on your iPad.

Once you open a PDF,, and if it is editable, you will get all the options on the three dots on the top right of the menu bar.

To know more, click on the link: Work with PDFs — Acrobat for iOS Help (adobe.com)

I hope this helps.

Thanks,

Souvik.

Hi
When I click on the 3 dots the options that come up are pen/line/eraser,
but I need the shapes-circle square etc. I know the PDF is editable when I
open it on my laptop and click comments, I can see the shapes option to
select, but it doesn't appear on ipad version:/

Hello Shawn,

The shape options are available on the desktop version of the application. I suggest you fill out the feature request form, which goes directly to our product team to review and implement in the upcoming updates.

Absolutely need to be able to add or  move shapes on the mobile app.
