Hi
I have used FreePDF to highlight lines in a document. Some lines are highlighted in yellow and others are highlighted in pink - although it was quite tricky because I had to remove existing highlighting and then re-apply the new highlight colour. I then saved the changes and opened the PDF in another PDF reader. It displayed perfectly showing some lines in yellow and some in pink. However when I re-opened the PDF in FreePDF all the highlighted lines appear in the same colour (yellow). They still appear correctly when I re-open the PDF in another PDF reader. Surely this is a serious bug ...
