Call Outs in PDF files
The Call Out tool is similar to the Text Box (it is always visible) but has an additional, useful property –it has an adjustable arrow connected to it. This is particularly handy when you need to point to a very specific thing on the page.
Tip: When trying to edit the properties of a call out, you need to be aware that there are different states, and you can only open the Properties dialog from one state. When the cursor is flashing inside the call out, you must click outside of the call out and then right-click to bring up the menu that gives you access to the properties.
