Is there a way to make comments "move to the back", behind the text and lines?

Is there a way to make comments "move to the back", behind the text and lines?
I am using Acrobat X Standard to "highlight" lines using comments lines at 12pt width and 50% opacity on DWG files converted to PDF.  The opacity setting makes the text and lines readable behind the highlighting, but the colors do not print well.  Moving the highlighting behind the existing text and lines would allow me to use 100% opacity with more vibrant colors.
Before, we highlighted by hand, but those colors do not scan or copy well.  Digitizing the highlighting is cleaner, and can be edited without starting over.  The "comments" lines can be applied by Acrobat Reader, Acrobat Standard, and Acrobat Pro, so there's an advantage.  Even more important is that the average file size of an 11x17 print that is highlighted and scanned in color is 1000 KB, while doing it this way, they tend to be 100-150 KB, and the text remains searchable. If there's another system that people use, I'm open to that instead.  I haven't looked in to doing the highlighting in AutoCAD.
Naturally, everything I'm doing is protected, and cannot be shared, sorry.
Thanks.

No, that's not really an option.

  • Is there a way to make iPhone speak what is displayed on the screen, with a simple click?

    is there a way to make iPhone speak what is displayed on the screen, with a simple click? Instead of going through the Accessibility and VoiceOver feature. This will be very useful if I am driving, or tired of reading from the screen, or watching other stuff ... thanks

    No.
    What is available via Accessibility settings is it.

  • Is there a way to store ITunes movies on an external wireless hard drive and access them from my IPAD.

    I am on deployment with VERY limited internet access. I have gone through all the movies on my IPad and would like to have access to the rest of my movies at home.  Is there a way for my wife to load ITunes movies off my Mac at home to an external hard drive, send me it to me and then I can view them from my IPad? How do I set up the IPad to look for the movies on the drive?

    No. An iPad does not have the capability to read data from an external HDD. You need a computer running iTunes to sync the movies to the iPad.

  • Is there a way to restore an iPhone as new, but keep only text and imessages?

    I've heard of iBackupBot, but that didn't work for me with iOS version 7.1.2.  I'm not looking to download texts and iMessages to a computer as a pdf file.  I'd like to have them right on my iPhone.  Also heard of PhoneView, but they don't seem to be able to load texts and iMessages back to iPhone.  Does anyone know of any other way, including third party software, to do this?  Thanks for the input.

    Unfortunately, this being an Apple forum, we are not allowed to discuss unsupported ways of accomplishing things.
    If you need to get this done, you need to search elsewhere for help.

  • Is there a way to make Photoshop CC keep document windows inside the application window?

    I've been a Photoshop user for a long time now, but only recently made the switch from CS3 to Creative Cloud. Generally I really like the changes, but there is one thing I absolutely hate with a passion - the default window management. I often want to arrange my windows side by side, so I disabled the tab mode, but the problem with doing this is that the windows are not managed inside Photoshop as they used to be in CS3. The biggest problem I have is that windows are not contained inside the Photoshop application frame as they used to be. I much prefer the old behaviour and wonder if there is some kind of option to reenable it.
    Anyone know? I notice the Mac version has something called application frame, which sounds like what I need, but it's Mac only for some reason :/

    I'm not a Mac user so don't know what menu it comes under, but Aplication Frame is what turns that feature on and off.  Either Window or View menu would be my guess

  • I have iwork downloaded from a cd, is there any way to make that show up as purchased on the mac app store

    i want it to be recognized as purchased on the app store so i can download it on my other mac

    No unfortunately the Mac App Store is a new purchase.
    In compensation it is very cheap and you can install it on any of your Macs using the same Apple ID.
    There is no need to switch yet, they are the same versions. Wait until their is a new version of Pages eg Pages '12 or '13 and then switch because that will be a new charge.

    btw You have installed your version from a DVD, downloading is something you do from the Internet.

  • I recently authored a DVD. Is there a way to make it into a Blu Ray using the same project settings?

    All my titles, menus, etc are in 720x480.  I'm not sure how to upscale it. 
    I tried just exporting as a Blu Ray, and the quality is terrible, the video menus are all screwy.  Also, I am getting Media Offline messages on footage that works perfectly fine on DVD. I tried burning straight to disc and also to an ISO.
    Thanks.

    They would be! you have tried to scale up from 720x480 in non-square pixels to (possibly) 1920x1080, and you cannot expect to do that & have it look any good.
    For HD, start using images that are ideally lossless (no JPEG) bitmaps or Tiff files are best, I find, and create your menu at the right resolution.
    Please also check that the resolution & frame rate you are using is also BD legal.

  • Is there a way to prevent Itunes' volume from lowering when I receive texts and email?

    Whenever I have my iphone connected to a speaker, the volume lowers when I receive a text or email. This can be very frustrating and I'm wondering if there is a setting to prevent this from happening. Can anyone help?

    Put your phone in silent mode, or enable do not disturb.

  • I upgraded to Firefox 7 and lost all my Bookmarks and the Toolbar which I use every day for all the important things I do on my Mac.. PLEASE HELP ME... Is there some way to restore my previous settings, go back to the older version or something?

    PLEASE HELP!... I am seriously freaking out... I use my Toolbar all the time!... and ALL OF MY BOOKMARKS ARE GONE ALSO!

    I am not an expert or even close, and I offer this only because this is how I figured out how to do it. I used a similar approach to importing all email accounts, email content and the address book into a new version of Thunder bird, but I assume this is common knowledge.
    My system:
    Windows 7 64 bit, recently upgraded from XP64. Installed Mozilla Aurora but seems the same as recent Firefox versions with respect to these features.
    Limitation:
    This solution depends on whether or not automatic backups were done of the bookmarks when you used your old installation. They were on my system and I don't remember doing it, but maybe I did. Others might know if this is periodically done by default. Assuming you have some backup (*.json) files,
    Locate your the bookmark backup files from the old version of your browser. On XP it was located in
    E:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.<your computer name>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bookmarkbackups
    Each of the bookmark backup files look like this example:
    bookmarks-1010-09-22.json
    They might also be located one folder deeper, in my case:
    E:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.<your computer name>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\x72qybcl.default\bookmarkbackups
    Again, they will look like this:
    bookmarks-1010-09-22.json
    Copy all of these .json files to the backup folder on your new installation. On my new Windows 7 file system system I found their new home at:
    C:\Users\Art\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\0ptl24i3.default\bookmarkbackups
    On an XP system I'm sure they would be found along a path, possibly on a differed drive, similar to where your got them from as above.
    I fired up Aurora. Drop down "Bookmarks" tab, Select "Show All Bookmarks" (found near the bottom). This brings up the "Library" window. At the top of the window is a tab "Import and Backup". Click this and select "Restore". All of the prior backup files will be available indexed by the date of backup. Select one and all of your prior bookmarks will be repopulated, including the bookmarks Toolbar.
    Hope this helps.

  • Is there a way to make movies playlists in itunes 10?

    I would like to be able to make a playlist consisting of movies without having to change info to make them into music videos. If there were a sperarte music video category in the itunes library section, that sure would be neat. But instead there is a music video playlist where the music videos will be, but they also show up in the Music library which I do not like or want. So is there a way to make a movies playlist w/o them ending up clogging the Music section of my itunes library?

    You can make a playlist that contains any combination of audio and video from the Music, Movies, TV Shows, Books (Audiobooks) and Podcasts sources. If you really object to the music videos appearing in Music, either make them Movies, or perhaps better yet, TV Shows and give them a common Show name to group them together.

  • Is there a way to make the multitrack behave as the edit window?

    I have been using the 30 day trial and am on my last day. I find Audition great except for 2 things(both of which I probably just don't know how to use).
    1.Is there a way to make a track shrink or enlarge with the mouse scroll as in edit. I find it really annoying when all it does in the multitrack is scroll up and down between the tracks.
    2.I can't seem to click on a track in the multi track and get it to play from there. I have to drag the play marker to that point.
    I'm sure these problems can be rectified and it's just because I haven't read the full spec.
    Many Thanks

    >I find Audition great
    Yes it is!
    >1.Is there a way to make a track shrink or enlarge with the mouse scroll as in edit. I find it really annoying when all it does in the multitrack is scroll up and down between the tracks.
    You are scrolling in the window you need to place your mouse over the vertical bar on the far right of the screen and then scroll
    >2.I can't seem to click on a track in the multi track and get it to play from there. I have to drag the play marker to that point
    Right mouse click on transport control (play button) and select play from cursor to end of file.

  • With the new iOS 7, in Mail I no longer see the count of emails, is there a way to make that appear?

    with the new iOS 7, in Mail I no longer see the count of emails, is there a way to make that appear?

    I stopped at the local Apple Store. Three salespeople heard my question and they agreed that the email count is not accesssible in iOS 7. Furthermore, it is not possible to control the number of messages held on the Apple device. It was possible in iOS 6, as one of the salespeople demonstrated. Since that is the case, what is the number of emails stored in iOS 7? If it varies, what determines the number that are stored? I do not want to set up an email account with 7000 to 8000 existing emails and wonder what will happen.

  • Is there a way to make high res screen grabs

    i often use the shift apple 4 key board shortcut to make selected screen grabs, although I was wondering is there a way to make screen grabs a higher resolution than the standard 72dpi?

    You can't increase the resolution of an image except in printing. If you print at a smaller size the you'll be squeezing more pixels in a smaller area thus increasing the dpi resolution of the print. But you can increase the resolution of the image file generated by the screenshot. Well, you can with Photoshop by resampling but it's never as good as the original. Screenshots are 72 dpi (or whatever the screen is - some at 92 or so) with the pixel dimensions as displayed on the screen.

  • Is there any way to make iphone 6 ring through speakers when headphones are plugged in?

    Is there any way to make iphone 6 ring through speakers when the headphones are plugged in?  Thanks.

    Plugging in a headset disables the speaker...nothing you can do to work around that.

  • Is there a way to make movies open with the same screen size and position?

    Hello, I'm a new mac guy having just bought an i-mac a few months ago.
    I have a bunch of saved movies that open in quick time. Each time I open a separate movie by double clicking the file, the window opens in the upper right hand corner in a fairly small window. I must then drag the window size and location to a much larger size. I do this every time.
    I saw under quicktime, preferences, a section about preferences for full screen. This seems to work one time, for that movie, but all subsequent movies (even in full screen) or their same size.
    Is there a way to make the window size and/or location permanent?
    Thanks.

    this would have seemed like an easy thing to do but i've had no luck; one more attempt at a solution?
