About how to annotate PDFs
Annotations na the normal way to review PDF: to mark contract for your colleague, correct draft, or write study notes on top paper. This tool dey add dem as real PDF annotations, no be as part of the page itself. That one mean say anybody wey open the file for Adobe Acrobat Reader, Preview for Mac, browser or most other PDF readers go see your highlights and comments, fit read dem for the comments list, and fit reply, move or delete dem. Highlight and underline dey work for PDFs wey get real text; for scanned page, no text dey to select, so draw box or run OCR PDF first. Comments dey show as small note icons wey go open when you click dem. The pen good for to circle, tick or do quick sketch. If you want marks wey nobody fit remove, like stamp, use Edit PDF or Watermark PDF. If you need hide text forever, use Redact PDF, because person fit remove black highlight.
