Add Comments
With PDFgear’s annotation tools, you can add comments in two ways: type text directly on the page or use sticky notes for quick remarks.
Go to the Annotations tab in the toolbar, and you’ll see two main options for adding comments:
- Text: Inserts visible text directly on the page.
- Note: Adds a sticky-note style icon that opens in a pop-up when clicked.
