I'm an undergraduate student and my professors put up the lectures in PDF format.I'm using Adobe Reader 8.0. Some of text in the lectures they post is in coloured font and as I use don't print it in colour I'd like to ask is there any way I can change the colour of the font in the document ? Thanks.

My Product Information:
Reader 8, Windows

Sorry, but Reader doesn't permit any editing of PDF content.

If it's practical for you, you can copy and past the text from Reader to MS Word or a text editor.

View the document in continuous pages view, click the Select tool in a body of text anywhere in the document and press Ctrl/Command + A to select all the text. Copy it, switch to your text editor and paste. You can change the font attributes in your text editor.

When back in the classroom, alert your instructor to the problems you're having with the files.
