Recently upgraded to the new chromium version of Edge.

The pen & ink settings aren't the same as the last version.

Not able to change the pen color, pen size, select pencil or highlighter if I open a pdf file in edge & try to write on it.

What happened to the choices?

Are there settings to change them?

Do I have to do a screen shot first?

Used to be able to write in real time on an open pdf file.

    I have to agree.  The Chromium version seems to be a step back in functionality.  No longer have the ability to read .epub documents and no longer have the ability to make notes or edit (functionally with different colors and line widths of .PDF files.

    What a way to "unimprove" the awesome functionality of the Surface platform!

    i was also looking for solution found one 

    for those who are not able to find any solution please give a try to KAMI PDF extension which is available in the chrome and edge extension store. you can write on pdf with plenty of colour choice and eraser funtion is very similar to that of edge's pdf reader. 

    UPDATE 

    Or download the edge canary which now has many colors options
