Opening and reading PDF files in Microsoft Edge on Windows 10
I tried searching this option up and nothing like it existed...

The post you replied to was made almost five months ago, and a lot has changed since then. Highlighting text in PDFs was introduced some weeks ago, as you'll see if you read through other replies in this thread.

Improvements in inking capabilities are on the way, again mentioned in earlier replies here. To see what's coming and when, read the Top Feedback Summary at the beginning of this forum listing. If you have suggestions for the Edge team, please use the feedback option within the browser (Alt-Shift-i). That's where the team learn what users are unhappy about or asking for. The more users that submit feedback about a particular feature, the higher up the priority list that feature rises. You'll see that a number of improvements to PDF handling are in the works.
