Is there any way to save a polygon in the toolbar for use in other pdf's?
 
I use Acrobat X Pro for marking up plans and use polygons to highlight certain items on these plans. The shapes (polygons) are consistant from project to project, only the quantity changes.
 
Thanks.

On the toolbar - not really, unless you were to go to the (huge) trouble of writing a plugin.

What you could do is draw your polygon as a graphic, and convert it into a custom stamp.

Another option is to create a custom-made script that will add a new toolbar button that will insert this polygon (I'm assuming it's an annotation) to the currently opened page. You could then move it to wherever you want.
