I just installed Foxit Reader 2.4.1. To test the highlight function, I opened a pdf, highlighted some text, saved it, closed it and re-opened it. Now I can see the highlight, but I can't figure out how to remove the highlight after I save and re-open the document. Before closing the document, I could simply undo the operation but now I can't find a way to select the highlight. Is this not doable in Foxit Reader?
