Remove comments from highlight tool

Hi, getting frustrated at the annoying comment pop ups that I get every time I use the highlight tool.  Occasionally I want a comment, but 99% of hte time I just want to highlight the text. Is there some way I can turn the automatic comment box off so the highlighter doesn't do this?
thanks in advance

OK, I've still got the same thing happening.  I've changed the preferences, but it still doing the same thing.  I've tried quitting Acrobat and re-starting and re-opening the document, but it's still the same, I highlight text, and a comment box opens.  The thing that's different now is that the highlighted text isn't in the comment box, but it's opening a comment box.  any more ideas???

  • Remove items from the Tools menu in the Service Manager console

    Hi. 
    I know I have see a post regarding this before, but just wanted to put it out these once again.  I'd like to remove items from the Tools menu in the Service Manager console - specifically My Notifications and Create Change Request.  This is because
    the former allows a user to create notification subscriptions in incorrect Management Packs, and the latter because we are not using Change Management yet.  Does anyone have any information on how to achieve this?
    Cheers

  • Accidentally removed trusted yellow highlight tool, how do i restore it?

    this evening I accidentally removed (i.e., deleted?) my most trusted YELLOW highlight Tool  from PDF toolbar
    and cannot find way to restore it. Can someone please provide help to remedy this problem?  Thanx

    Thank-you Steve. While this worked (i.e., for yellow highlight text) , it appears the larger overriding issue recently occurred with latest acrobat update i.e., the  entire customized toolbar was lost. screen resolution/font size is larger (i.e., certain key pop-windows are now too large to activate /i.e., hit "enter" and make desired changes). As well other frequently used tools now appear gone (and are inaccessible) i.e., such as  "insert text box" 
    Is this something that cccurred with latest update or more having to do with my desktop? Hasn't happened before w-previous updates.
    Thanks for all assistance.

  • Help with program to remove comments from chess(pgn) text files

    Hi
    I would like to make a java program that will remove chessbase comments from pgn files (which are just based text files).
    I have done no java programming on text files so far and so this will be a new java adventure for me. Otherwise I have limited basic java experience mainly with Java chess GUI's and java chess engines.
    I show here a portion of such a pgn text file with the chessbase comments which are between the curly braces after the moves:
    1. e4 {[%emt 0:00:01]} c6 {[%emt 0:00:10]} 2. d4 {[%emt 0:00:03]} d5 {
    [%emt 0:00:01]} 3. e5 {[%emt 0:00:01]} Bf5 {[%emt 0:00:01]} 4. h4 {
    [%emt 0:00:02]} e6 {[%emt 0:00:02]}
    I want to make a java program if possible that removes these comments, so just leaving the move notation eg:
    1. e4 c6 2. d4 d5 3. e5 Bf5 4. h4 e6
    I am just starting with this. As yet I am unsure how to begin and do this and I would be extremely grateful for any help and advice to get me going with this project.
    I look forward to replies, many thanks

  • How do I remove colors from the Tools Palette

    Hi,
    I recently defined two custom colors (blue and green) that were required for our brand representation (I am using Unstructured FM 8). I used the RGB values that Marketing provided to obtain these colors. For some reason, I now have the entire RGB blue and green libraries displayed in my Set Color option of the Tools Palette.
    Is there a way to remove these standard RGB libraries while keeping my custom color definitions?
    Thank you,
    Miruna

    the »Indexed color efficiencies« came from way back when the Net was a number of very thin electronic pipes connected to each other.
    You're replying to someone who recalls full page 300 dpi TIFFs taking 30 minutes just to display for text overlay in Frame 3.1.
    It is a long time I heard someone complaining about image files larger than 32k. but of course, FrameMaker should handle them OK!
    Frame handles large images with ease. I've generated PostScript files of 1GB. The issue is what size PDF they distill to.
    We render to PDF at the same resolutions for both publishing and web (200 dpi contone, 600 bitmap). Multiple dozen large images can easily make a final document PDF that is too large for practical web use. Our general rule is that if a single image adds more than 250 KB to the final PDF,  we take steps.
    I often have to deal with dense vector objects that are well over 5MB as raw  EPS. I routinely save a convenience browsing PDF of each image, and if it's over 250K, the image gets attention.
    For B&W line art, flattening to 600 dpi dithered bitmap in Photoshop usually suffices, but rasterizing to contone does not, because our workflow passes 600 dpi "bitmap", but subsamples "color" and "gray" to 200 dpi.
    I had this one vector-overload externally sourced image where I needed just a touch of one color. I was hoping that indexed color (e.g. GIF) might be the solution, but Distiller downsampled it anyway. Some of the indexed color tests, as I recall, but cannot now re-create, also polluted the color pallete.
    The work-around, in case anyone else has the same requirement (hi-res bitmap with color), was:
    Open the .ai file in PhotoShop, 600 dpi gray.
    Convert to bitmap, 600 dpi, diffusion dither.
    Save as .tif.
    Open the original .ai in Illustrator.
    Isolate the color elements to the top layer.
    Open the .tif bitmap in Illustrator.
    Copy the bitmap into a new bottom layer.
    Align the bitmap with the vector B&W layers of the same content.
    Turn off the vector B&W layers.
    Save the .ai.
    Flatten and save as .eps.
    This survives distiller, and provides a bitmap with color.
    Don't forget to redact the metadata. It can add MBs all by itself.

  • Removing comments from .conf files

    Far too often - when checking out a .conf-file, there is a pletoria of comments and empty lines - in most cases, comments start with a '#'.
    This li'l alias will remove all the verbosity:
    alias stripcom='egrep -v "^[ \t]*#|^[ \t]*$"'
    example of use:
    stripcom /etc/vsftpd.conf
    enjoy!
    [edit]
    had to allow for spaces/tabs _before_ the '#' ...
    [/edit]
    [more_edit]
    guess I should do the same for end-of-line as well ... :-(

    OK, it's a good idea, but there's no point on doing that.
    You might want to read the entire thread - specifically, this bit:
    perbh wrote:*sigh* because - when people are asked to show their conf-files - you have to scroll down ad-infinitum to get to the juicy bits , those that really count. And all-to-often you look at the entries and miss out on the leading '#' - that's why! Using the above will give you only the 'valied' entries. But hey - you are free to ignore it!
    The point is to cut down the amount of clutter in posts. It's an excellent idea.

  • Highlight tool, typewriter tool, etc. disappeared + gone from menu

    I installed Acrobat 9.5.5 Pro as part of the CS4 Suite several years ago.  I'm a casual user of Acrobat 9 Pro.  I have used the Highlight tool and Typewriter tool on many documents over the years.  Many that I have saved on my computer.  They have renderable text!
    Suddenly the Highlight tool and Typewriter tool, and others, have disappeared + are gone from the Tools + its sub-menus.  I'm a pretty savvy computer user.  I don't recall that I did anything to change the Tools menu.
    When I go to View\Toolbars\More Tools... the the Highlight tool and Typewriter tool don't show there either.
    I reinstalled Acrobat 9 Pro from the original CD... the tools menu is still missing the Highlight tool and Typewriter tool, and others. (I say "others" because, although I may not have used them, I sense there were previously more tools visible on the Tools + its sub-menus
    Can anyone advise me how to recover the Highlight tool and Typewriter tool?

    This happens to all PDF's, those created by me or otherwise.  The files are not protected.
    You pointed me to a link as a possible solution: "To use the Typewriter tool in Reader 9 on a PDF opened in the browser, enable this right on the PDF using Adobe Acrobat Professional." => "Choose Tools > Typewriter > Enable typewriter tool in Adobe Reader." => I don't have a problem with Reader 9.  I cannot find this option in my Acrobat 9.5.5 Pro.
    Neither the Highlight tool or Typewriter tool exist in the More Tools menu.
    I cannot select highlighted text that I created by itself.  I can select a block of text that contains highlighted text within the block,however I cannot modify it.
    If I try to select a text box that I created with my mouse, it flashes a light blue shade very briefly as I left click on it, but does not actually select the box and allow me to access it.
    This is so strange.   I can't imagine what dumb thing I may have done to cause this.

  • Highlight Tool without comments?

    Is there anyway to simply highlight text without adding a popup comment box with Adobe Reader 9? I tried looking online to no avail, and I tried other Comment and Markup Tools, but they all have the popup. If I have no choice, I guess I can live with it, but I don't really have a use for the comments box and I feel like the document would look cleaner without them. Any and all help is appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!

    Try playing around with the settings under Edit - Preferences - Commenting
    I think it's the one called "Create new pop-ups aligned to the edge of the document", but it might be something else on that page.

  • Why is Pathfinder crop tool removing items from artboard?

    Hello all,
    I have a complexe vector drawing with shapes that pass the artboard. I want to crop the items within the artboard without using a clipping mask. My problem is when I draw a rectangle equal to the artboard, place it on it's own in the top layer, unlock and show all shapes (there are no open paths) and select everything, the results don't give me a proper cropped vector graphic. For some reason, it removes elements from within the artboard and leaves white lines where my paths are....live vapour trails! (there are no transparencies and everything is in RGB)
    Here is the before and after of the bottom of the artwork. Any ideas?
    before:

    Thanks!!

    For some reason, it removes elements from within the artboard
    The reason depends on specifically how your paths are drawn.
    You should be able to do this:
    1. Position a horizontal guide at the bottom of the Artboard.
    2. Knife Tool: Position cursor outboard of Artboard. Press Alt. Mousedown (snapping to the Guide). ShiftDrag rightward across the bottom of the artwork.
    However, that assumes reliable and accurate Snap behavior across the toolset, which Illustrator's isn't.
    To avoid figuring out all the caveats of Illustrators very poorly implemented boolean path combination features (so-called Pathfinders):
    1. Rectangle Tool. Draw a rectangle outboard of the Artboard, snapping the top of it to the bottom of the Artboard.
    2. Copy.
    3. ShiftClick one of the paths you want to cut.
    4. Click the "punch" (Subtract) Pathfinder (assuming CS5 or CS4; altClick the same Pathfinder in CS3 and prior.)
    5. PasteInFront. Repeat steps 3 & 4.
