Highlight comment text not filled in?

Post by AlexHK »

Using PDF-Xchange Editor Plus, I am trying to highlight important text in documents, then create a summary of all comments/highlights using the Summarize Comments function.

My problem is, while comments are working fine, the text for highlights is not filled in.

If I highlight the text "Activated", shouldn't it be used as the text?

Am I doing it wrong?
