Fine-Tuning Annotations
You can fine-tune an annotation by specifying the font and color of the
text or background or by moving and resizing the annotation.
Selecting the Font or Color
You can select the font, style, point size, or color of the text on a text
markup or Sticky Note before or after typing it. You can also change the
color of an annotation already drawn on the page.
