Frequently asked questions
Will removing annotations affect the underlying document content?+
No — annotations are separate overlay layers. The original page content is completely unaffected.
Can I remove only some reviewers' comments and keep others?+
Currently all annotations are removed in one operation. Selective removal by reviewer requires a full PDF editor like Adobe Acrobat.
Does this remove form field data as well?+
No — form fields are separate from annotations. To remove form fields, use the Flatten tool.
