Adobe acrobat has 3 tiers Free which is useless Acrobat which has 90% of everything you'll ever need except for that one time you'll need to censor a portion of the document which is only available in

Acrobat pro which is another 10$ a month on top of regular acrobat (20$ a month) and offers literally 2 extra features that previously were not separated.

Or you can change the highlighter to black and use that instead.

Fuck Adobe.

If you distribute that PDF, users will be able to search, highlight, and copy "highlighted" text, no problem.
