FAQ
What is the difference between Highlight Text and area highlighting?
- Highlight Text is used to mark recognizable text content in a PDF.
- Area highlighting is more suitable for any region on the page, not only text itself.
- If you want to emphasize sentences, paragraphs, or keywords, use Highlight Text first. If you need to mark graphics, stamp areas, or non-text content, use an area-based annotation method.
How do I delete all highlights in bulk?
- Open the PDF and go to the annotation management panel.
- Locate or filter the highlight annotations in the list.
- Select the highlight records you want to remove and run the bulk delete action.
- After deletion, the corresponding highlights disappear from the document pages.
Can I customize the highlight color?
- Before adding a highlight, choose the color you want in the color picker.
- If a highlight already exists, click it and change the color afterward.
- If you need a different color, choose another option in the color picker.
