With text highlighting, notes, drawing tools, or any of the many other annotation types supported by the PDF spec, our Annotations component gives your users the tools they need.
With our annotation tools, we focused on ease of use so you can offer your users a document collaboration Swiss Army knife.
A robust annotation system with a set of easy-to-use tools will make your app the stalwart of document handling in any business environment.
The annotation toolbar enables quick access to all the annotation types in the PDF spec. It’s fully customizable, and it even supports predefined pen tool settings for seamless switching between visual annotation styles.
GuidesNote annotations let you add longer comments to PDF documents. You can also select a custom icon shape and color for the note through the custom note inspector.
GuidesWith ink annotations, you can add predefined shapes and create freeform drawings on a PDF document. Color and line thickness are easily adjustable via the annotation inspector in the toolbar.
GuidesAdd new text directly to the page, and take advantage of many convenient features, like automatic annotation sizing, copy and paste, text rotation, custom font selection, justification, and callout annotations.

Set the noZoom
property to enhance usability and ensure a consistent viewing experience. All annotations remain the same size, regardless of the PDF's zoom level. Seamlessly view construction plans and other complex documents, no matter how many annotations they contain.
Save a stamp in the browser's local storage so you can reuse it without having to create a new stamp each time. Customize the stamp to automatically pull in the user ID of the person editing the PDF.
