![]() While the desktop release of Adobe Reader (back to, I think, release 7.0.5 (or 7.5 ?)) supports this it is not a given that the mobile release does. I've not done any look abouts to see if the mobile version of Adobe Reader can support "enabled/extended" PDF. You may find that you will have invest some time in working over your PDF collection such that they can support (or be 'eligilble' as it were) use on a mobile device. | for comment/markup with Reader (e.g., "highlight") the source PDF must be Reader "Enabled"/"Extended" by Acrobat Pro 8 or 9. Reflow is one of the facilities provided by Tagged PDF (Accessibility is another of facility).

And please, if you have suggestions, please tell me what you know and not what you have heard or think is true because there is a lot of wrong info out there about what some of the purported software alternatives will do – I know because I have called several companies only to find that they don’t perform as generally believed. not the reader because you can't highlight using the reader) will run on the android 2.1 OS – such as on the HTC EVO phone.Ģ.Or is there another alternative to Adobe acrobat that will allow me to highlight text in a PDF and better yet make notes on a PDF using the Android OS. The one key feature I absolutely need is the ability to highlight text and it would be additionally wonderful to make notes of the pages as I do with Acrobat professional.ġ.The problem is that no one seems to know if Acrobat professional (i.e. highlight) the PDFs on a more portable piece of hardware (tablet, ereader, HTC evo etc).
