Hello All,
This is mainly a we are now working from home issue, as many of us do not have access to printers, so when we do quality control markups on files printed DWG To PDF using Adobe Acrobat Standard 2017 we are limited on the comment tools we can use. if the files have been printed and scanned the Adobe highlighter and Text comments work fine, if it is straight from Autocad they do not work at all, we only really need these two edit features so I am looking for a quick easy solution, if one exists to acoomplish this. So far all attempts have failed, we do not need intelligent pdfs but we also don't want to change a lot as our current settings in a normal office setting work fine and keep our client happy. Any solutions greatly appreciated. so far all I have been able to come up with is using the pencil setting it to a color and thickness and then it is all freehand for text which is very cumbersome.
Thank you in Advance
I have zero issues marking up a PDF using the free Adobe DC edition of my drawings plotted to PDF. I have the text set to be ttf (or something like that in plotter options) and to not plot the layers.

I would think the scanned PDF would be less accessible that the raster pdf. Standard adobe is not marking up? thats odd. I have reader and can markup. maybe your tool bar is collapsed

Thanks everyone
We are using Adobe Acrobat Standard 2017 and Civil3d 2017. I will look into the other posts about the bug when I have time, there was so many and the few I chose had no answers. we have decided to just use the pencil with a thickness and color assigned, it is not ideal if there are notes that need to be added as it is freehand, but it will get us by, we can always add a separate file with note changes. thanks again.
You may want to look into BlueBeam, it is an editing suite that lets you edit and markup PDF's. I believe there is a free version, with limited features, then the full price version with all features. The free version may be enough for what you need.

my toolbar is not collapsed? and yes the editing works way better with a scanned image and I don't really understand you last emoji? I have not received a solution?
