Step 1: Open Your PDF in Adobe Acrobat

First, open your PDF file in Adobe Acrobat. Make sure you’re using the full version of Acrobat, not just the free Reader.

Step 2: Go to the Comments Tool

Look over to the right-hand menu and click on “Comments.” This will open up a bunch of options you can use to mark up your PDF.

Step 3: Pick the Line Tool

Inside the Comments section, you’ll see drawing tools. Click on the one that looks like a line.

Now, you’re ready to draw.

Step 4: Draw Your Line

Just click and drag your mouse to draw a line on the PDF. Want to make it perfectly straight?
Hold down the Shift key while dragging, and Acrobat will lock the line to a straight path, horizontal, vertical, or diagonal.

Step 5: Customize Your Line

After you’ve drawn the line, you can adjust a few things to make it look just right:

  • Change the thickness: Click on the line thickness icon and slide it to make your line thinner or thicker.

  • Pick a color: Want the line to stand out? Click on the color option and choose any color that fits your style or purpose.
