Help Comments and markup

Draw rectangles, ellipses, lines and arrows

Add simple shapes to point at or frame parts of a page.

Shapes help you frame, connect or point at things on a page.

Steps

  1. In the rail, choose Comment. In the Shapes group, choose Rectangle, Ellipse, Line or Arrow.
  2. Drag on the page. For a rectangle or ellipse, drag from one corner to the other. For a line or arrow, drag from where it starts to where it ends; an arrow's head is at the end.

Good to know

  • Colour, opacity and line width come from the Properties tab.
  • To move or resize a shape later, use Select annotations.
  • Undo with Ctrl+Z.
