![]() ![]() If you highlighted just a part of a word, it will not be picked up. Note: The script can only recognize full words. In case you manually entered some text into the comment, don't worry! The script will not remove your text, just add to it (see example #2). ![]() This is why I developed this script to retroactively insert the highlighted text into existing comments in all of your pre-existing files. Once a section of text has been Highlighted the Copy function is disabled for that section of text. Now, choose the same chunk of text you've highlighted and go to Edit, under which you will notice that the Copy function has been disabled. Acrobat won't change your existing comments, only your new ones. The text you've highlighted now remains yellow. And when you realize this and switch this setting on, it's too late. As a result, if you make highlights to your file, the text you highlight is not copied into the comment itself, which can be very useful when creating summaries. Sadly, it's not checked by default (see screenshot below). Tool Description: One of the most important settings in Acrobat is "Copy selected text into Highlight, Cross-Out, and Underline comment pop ups" (to be found under Edit - Preferences - Commenting). ![]() The script version of the tool is still available, as can be seen below. Feel free to try it out and then purchase the full version to get the full functionality. Alongside the stand-alone version there's now also a free demo version, which will process the first 3 highlight annotations in the first 3 files you use it on. ![]()
