I am using acrobat 8 pro and the text highlight tool to highlight keywords/phrases in pdfs containing mostly text. While the yellow highlight looks good on the screen, when I print it comes out in such a faint shade that you can barely see it.

My question: is there a way to alter the density of the highlight when it prints (preferably without changing how it looks on the screen)?

Thanks a lot.

right-click the highlight and ensure it's opacity is 100%.

Other than that there are no settings. You could try refrying by prining the highlighted pdf, to the Adobe PDF printer. (use a different file name) and to print the refried pdf to the normal printer instead.

Or try highlighting using a different colour.

I have a related question about the Highlight Tool. I use it a lot and would like to use shortcuts for multiple highlight colors.

I know how to change the default highlight color, but is there a way to add a second, third, etc. highlight button for different colors?

Thanks
