Q: Preview (v8.1) changed the font size on hundreds of my annotations

Hey Guys,

 

I recently upgraded to el capitan (v. 10.11.4) from yosemite and found that preview automatically changed all my annotation text boxes on PDFs I had annotated on preview. Normally I wouldn't care if it just changed the font slightly, but some annotations are blown up with large size text that doesn't even let me see what Id written. Problem is I have academic books (500+ pages) that I have annotated with hundreds of individually written annotations each and going through them might take days. I used inspector to try and select all the text boxes at once (so that I could change the font size) but it would only let me delete all the annotations on a given PDF, not change their properties all at once. Any help would be very appreciated! Thanks!

MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11.4)
