Until yesterday, I was able to highlight my pdfs by doing the following:

- i went to files, clicked convert pdf and then it brought me to this program called "foxit pdf creator" and it turned my pdfs into a UNIVERSAL foxit pdf.
- i wasn't able to highlight on the original pdfs, but I found that I could highlight on the universal foxit pdf. yay!

THIS MORNING, however...

- i went to files, clicked convert pdf, and then it started loading 2/3rd of the way, then it just stopped at the tracks. Furthermore, it opened up my printer, where the files were "being spooled". What does this even mean?!
- so I tried other methods of pdf that I researched online. i went to Files, clicked Print, where I chose Foxit printer as my printer then clicked OK. This SUCCESSFULLY created my universal foxit pdf, but now I've found that I CANNOT HIGHLIGHT on these things.

Instead, when i try to highlight (even in just text mode), it just DRAGS (makes a box...) and does not do anything!! What happened to my highlighting function? How do I get it back???

This is really urgent because I am studying for my MCAT and I have practice material on pdf and i do not have the resources to print them. I only require the highlighting method and I'm starting to panic!!

PLEASE HELP! THANK YOU!!!!!

Hello Alex:

I ran the setup program to repair the installation of Corel Draw 11 and it did not rectify the problem.

I even re-downloaded the Creator and I still get that message. Can you give me some things to try? Thank you
