How do I change the highlighter color in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC permanently?

I downloaded the latest version of Acrobat Reader and cannot figure out how to permanently change the highlighter color for all future uses. In the version I have on another computer, I can simply right click on the highlighter icon and select the color and transparency I wish to use.

Is this still possible in the new version? I don't like the harsh yellow that is the default and it's not practical to change the color of every highlight I make.

Solution

  • Yes it is still possible. Go to the Highlight tool and right click, and then click on tool default properties. This is where you can select the new colour.

    *I tested this on Version:
