I lost my previous notes on PDF which I made by the old version of Microsoft edge

Question

Hi there,&nbsp;&nbsp;Is there anyone encountering the problems I have?&nbsp;I used to always view pdf on microsoft edge and make notes on them.However, when the new version of Microsoft edge released, I found it is not so helpful when viewing pdf anymore. I don't have a touch screen or a pen, so I can not type notes directly now and can not use the highlighten function anymore. Also, my previous notes cannot be shown correctly now.&nbsp;I had no idea about how to fix it. Please leave your comments below to help me solve my problem. Many thanks.

HiAnran140&nbsp;Yes,Red arrows show things that I added to PDF on Edge legacy but now viewing on Edge Canary 82&nbsp;&nbsp;as you can see the sticky notes added in Edge legacy are kinda distorted. I did not write it like that, i wrote it properly.&nbsp;more info:https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/discussions/pdf-inking-on-the-new-edge-is-compatible-with-legacy-edge/m-p/1103209&nbsp;so at the moment I think you need to use Edge legacy and copy your notes to a text or Word file If it looks too distorted on the new Edge
