What this tool does
When you review a contract or grade someone else’s work, what you need is to scribble: circle a clause, cross out a number, write a note in the margin. The editor has annotation tools that draw on the page and are saved with the PDF.
Because nothing is uploaded, you can annotate documents full of personal data without wondering who is holding onto them.
FAQ
Can annotations be removed?
Yes, while you are still editing. Once exported they are drawn into the file.
Will any viewer show them?
Yes, they are saved inside the page, so every viewer shows them.
