Annotate a PDF

Draw, highlight and add notes on top of the page. The page underneath is left exactly as it was.

How it works

  1. Drop your PDF in.
  2. Draw, highlight or add text on top.
  3. Download the annotated PDF.

About this tool

Marks go on their own layer, above the document. You can hold the page still so only your own marks move, and you can hide your marks to check the page underneath before you save. What is on the screen is what comes out.

Questions

Will my marks be part of the file?

Yes — the PDF you download has them drawn into it, so they show up in any reader.

Can I remove a mark later?

In this session, yes: undo works throughout. Once you download and close the tab, the session is gone.
