# Modifying Annotation Sizes

This topic describes how to modify the size of a notepad, a rectangle, an ellipse, a line, a date stamp, a received stamp, or shapes, with the mouse.
If word wrapping is enabled for text annotations, you can modify the size of a text input area.
If a link annotation is not automatically resized to title and [Edit All Links/Titles] is cleared, you can modify the size of the link annotation.
These operations are available in edit mode.
Procedure
1.
Select one annotation pasted to a page.
Dots appear around the annotation.
2.
Select one dot and drag-and-drop it. Drag-and-drop it while holding down the <Shift> key to modify the annotation size without changing the annotation's aspect ratio.
The annotation size is modified.
Note

- When resizing the date stamp, or the received stamp, the width and height ratio of the date stamp, or the received stamp remains unchanged.
- The minimum size of the date stamp is 10 x 10 mm. The size smaller than its minimum size cannot be specified.
- The minimum size of the received stamp is 30 x 20 mm. The size smaller than its minimum size cannot be specified.
- The smallest size of a notepad and a text input area is 5 x 5 mm each and that of a rectangle and an ellipse is 3 x 3 mm each. If you try to change an annotation size to a smaller one than the above sizes, the annotation size will be of the original size specified in the annotation tool.
- You cannot modify the size of a fixed annotation using the mouse.
- You cannot modify an annotation size if annotation editing is prohibited.
- You can specify an annotation size on the [Position and size] tab of properties of annotations.
- Depending on the type of the shapes annotation, a control point (yellow circle) appears when you select a shapes annotation. You can change a style (such as a radius of rounded corner for a rounded rectangle and width of a donut) without changing the size of the shapes annotation by dragging the control point.
