I just had a Firefox update and it stated: Edit PDFs in Firefox. How do I find this feature? I've looked in settings and all things listed from the "hamburger" menu and can't find it.

I opened a new tab in Firefox. Then I did a drag and drop of the pdf file from Windows Explorer into the tab.

Now the icons Ty showed are in the editing tab. Hope this helps, good luck.

Ah! Now I see... One has to open a PDF FIRST, then the edit/highlight icons will appear. I also went into settings and switched the default app from Edge to Firefox for opening PDF documents. It would have helped if Mozilla actually had a few instructions in the Release Notes instead of simply featuring it on the splash page.
