Why annotate a PDF?
Annotating a PDF adds visual information: highlight a passage, draw an arrow to point out a detail, frame an area, or add free text. It’s essential for proofreading, collaboration, or presentation.
Document Flare offers local annotations: highlighting, freehand drawing, rectangle, arrow, text. Everything is done in your browser.
