Question
Hey Ken,

I'd like to print out course notes that I get in standard black in another color, such as blue. I have Adobe Acrobat pro.

Thanks

Answer
Hi Harry,

Use the Touch-Up Text tool under the Tools -> Advanced Editing menu.
You can select words singularly or drag a selection around whole paragraphs.
With the text selected, ctrl-click (mac) or right-click (pc) and select Properties.
In the Touch-Up Text Properties dialog you should find the fill color, it should be a black square. Click this square and select the desired color from the list.

Then save and print.

Thanks,

Ken Black
