The Highlighter annotation tool can be used just like a highlighter pen in the paper world, that is, you can highlight text on an image. Follow our steps to designate the color of your highlighter.
- Select Highlighter in the list of annotation tools.
- Right-click
in the right side of the window, and then click Add. As an alternative,
click
on the toolbar.
- In the New Highlighter Template dialog box, type an easily identifiable name in the Name box.
- On the Colors tab, click the down arrow to display the available colors. Click the appropriate tab (Custom, Web, or System) and select the color that you would like to use.
- On the File Types tab, you can designate specific file types with which the annotation maybe used. When you add a type here, the annotation may only be used with images included in the type's file structure.
- Click Add to display a list of file types.
- In the Select File Type dialog box, select the file type. You can select multiple types by using Shift+click, Ctrl+click, or dragging the mouse pointer over the types to be selected.
- When your file type selections are complete click OK.
- As an alternative to adding specific file types, you can select the Select all file types option at the bottom of the dialog box. When you select this option, the annotation may be used with any file type in the storage structure.
- To remove a file type so that it is no longer related to the annotation, select it in the list on the File Types tab and click Remove.
- Click Create to save your changes. Click Clear to remove all entries and retain the dialog box for further use. Click Close before Create to return without saving your changes.
