Clear Formatting in Add note to replace text comment adds a new line
If you use "Clear Formatting" on the comment content after adding a comment with the "Add note to replace text" tool, a new line / return is added at the end of the comment. This completely undercuts our workflow which relies on removing formatting information from comments we are using for review purposes.

OS: Windows 10 Enterprise 64 bit (Build 19042)
System language: German
Software: Adobe Reader DC 2022.001.20169, Adobe Acrobat DC
Steps to reproduce
- Open a PDF file
- Add a comment with "Add note to replace Text"
- Double click comment content
- Select all comment content, chose Text Style - Clear Formatting
Expected result:
Formatting is cleared, nothing else happens
Actual result:
Formatting is cleared, a new line / paragraph is added after the end of the selected content
This is highly impractical when you import comments to InDesign and want to accept changes to the text with one click, without having to manually fix unintended new lines.
