changing background colour when text editing?

[jkae87772705]

Using Adobe Pro DC:

In Previous versions of adobe pro I could edit the background colour around selected text by going to edit text then going to advanced settings, Advanced setting does not seem to exist anymore? It appears that I can change the background colour of pages but not single words?

I want to select a word or a set of symbols and change the background colour - can anyone tell me how to do this? I don't want to use the highlight because it is the wrong colour and I am not sure that this will then be readable correctly in all pdf readers.

Thanks for your help.

Where have you seen advanced settings?
