Where is the measurement tool in Reader DC?

[Guest]

I'm following instructions that basically say "Click Edit > Analysis > Measuring Tool" and illustrates it with screenshots from an apparently different version of the reader. The screenshot shows Analysis between Protection and Accessibility, but I don't see it there in my installation.

Look at Tools > Measure

D'oh! As simple as that. (Begs the question of why it isn't also off the menu bar, but that's a different discussion.)

I just started to use Reader DC Measuring Tool.

I changed Scale Ratio 1 in = 3 ft. And when I am using that measuring tool it gives me ALL numbers in inches only!

What should I do to see results in ft as I did in Scale Ratio?

Please help. And excuse me if it is a stupid question.

I'm new to the recent version of Acrobat DC. I know this thread is about Reader... But hey, if you wind up here, in Acrobat you need to go to Tools then SEARCH for "Measure," and click Add. then you can go to Tools tab and open measure tools. It seems to be totally hidden until you search.

Now a follow up - what have Adobe done with the measure tool in the Chromium Extension?  IE Extension had it, but the Edge/Chrome one doesn't.

Adobe don't make the PDF viewer in Chrome or Edge. They can't add features either. Open in Acrobat.

That's not what I asked - I was asking about the Adobe PDF Extension they do have for Chromium browsers, not the native Chromium rembering.

The Chromium Extension does not have the measure tool.

The Internet Explorer one does.
