PDF input with annotated PDF output
Online PDF tool
Annotate a PDF online without leaving the real editor
Start with markup tools first, then keep save, flatten, share, and follow-up PDF tasks in the same workflow once the review is done.
Open a review-first workflow instead of landing in the full editor with every tool competing at once.Underline, strikethrough, highlight, shapes, stamps, signatures, and image callouts stay in the same save and export path.Shared review, flatten, and save still use the canonical editor output pipeline.

Prepared Workspace
ReadyLocal-first
The handoff preserves route context so the live tool opens in the right lane with less friction.
Trust near upload
Review-first trust cues
Markup work often happens fast, so the route keeps trust, support, and product-boundary links beside the upload moment instead of burying them elsewhere.
- Highlights, notes, stamps, shapes, and signatures stay on the same output path.
- Unsupported files still show the same honest password and file-state handling used by the main editor.
- You can flatten the finished review output when compatibility matters more than editability.
Pricing and limits
Free and paid limits
Free
Review markup, highlights, notes, signatures, and lightweight sharing preparation can start on the public route right away.
Upgrades
Advanced collaboration, heavier export needs, and broader workflow depth sit behind paid plans when they go beyond the starter review flow.
The public annotate page is meant to be useful on its own, not a teaser that hides the first meaningful action.
Workflow blueprint
How it works
The public entry point is intentionally short. You choose the file, land in the live tool, and finish the job in a workspace tailored to that task.
01
Upload one PDF and open the review-first annotation workflow.
02
Use highlight, underline, strikethrough, notes, draw, shapes, stamps, signatures, and image callouts without starting in the broader editor surface.
03
Save, flatten, export, or share the annotated PDF through the same canonical output path.
01
Annotate PDFs online with review-first controls.
02
Reach highlight, underline, strikethrough, notes, and shapes faster.
03
Keep save, export, flatten, and shared review in one workflow.
What this annotate route covers
This page is best when your first job is review markup: highlight, underline, strike out, draw, add notes, place stamps, or sign a file visually.
You still land in the real editor, but the public route opens on the tools that matter most for review instead of page management or export settings.
- Best for feedback cycles, redline review, and approval-ready markups.
- Not the best entry point when your main task is merge, split, or bulk compression.

Common questions
Does this still open the real editor?
Yes. Pdf Clarity opens the real editor but lands in a focused annotation mode so review tools appear first instead of getting buried behind the wider editing surface.
Can I still export or share the annotated PDF?
Yes. Save, export, flatten, and shared review all stay on the same canonical output path used by the rest of the editor.
