Add Comments to PDF — Real Sticky-Note Annotations guide

Add proper PDF comments: type a note, click where it belongs, and it is saved as a real annotation — a note icon on the page that readers click to read your text.

How to use this tool

  1. Choose or drop your PDF and navigate to the spot. Type your comment (and your name, if you want it attached) in the fields above the preview.
  2. Click on the page where the note belongs. A numbered yellow marker appears, and the comment joins the list below.
  3. Change the text and click again for more comments, then click Add comments & download.

A worked example

A reviewer works through a report: “Source for this figure?” on page 3, “This date contradicts page 9” on page 7 — the author opens the file and each note is parked on the exact sentence it questions.

How it works

Comments are stored as standard PDF text annotations — the format’s own sticky-note mechanism — created at the low level of the document structure with your text as the annotation contents and your name as its author when given. Readers, browsers and Acrobat all show the note icon at your click point and open the note on click. Nothing is drawn over the page itself, so the document’s appearance stays clean.

Frequently asked questions

How do readers see my comments?

As a small note icon at the point you clicked. Clicking or hovering it in any mainstream reader opens your full text.

Can I edit a comment after placing it?

Remove it with its ✕ in the list and place a new one with corrected text.

Do comments print?

Most readers print documents without annotation contents by default (icons may show) — comments are a review layer, not page content. For permanent visible notes, use Edit PDF to stamp text on the page.

Is my name required?

No — it is optional. When given, it is stored as the annotation’s author, which review tools display.

Is the PDF uploaded?

No. Commenting runs entirely in your browser.
