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.
