check-in PDF files located on SharePoint servers.
Annotating PDF Documents to Collaborate With Others
Annotating (also called commenting) capabilities are very powerful in PhantomPDF. These features
allow authors and reviewers to collaborate with each other to optimize the effectiveness of the
documents they produce. PhantomPDF allows annotation on any type of content, including images.
For example, users can create images of website content with the Windows Snipping tool, import
them into PDF, and then easily provide feedback to the author of the content
–
try doing that with a
word processor. There are various annotation tools with different functions for you to choose:
Typewriter Tools, Markup Tools, Drawing Markup Tools, Measure Tools, Stamp Tools, and Notes
Tools.
Comments Management allows users to easily control the annotations provided and
received. Users can export, import, summarize, hide all, and show all their annotations.
Notes
tools allows users to include “yellow post

” like comments on PDF documents
.
Text Markup tools indicate where text should be edited or noticed. Text Markups do not
change the actual text in the PDF. Instead, they indicate which text should be deleted,
inserted, highlighted or underlined. Text Markup tools include Highlight Tool, Underline Tool,
Strikeout Tool, Squiggly Tool, Replace Tool, and Insert Tool.
Drawing tools allows you to mark up a document with arrows, lines, squares, rectangles,
circles, ellipses, polygons, polygon lines, clouds, etc. It is quite useful when you have to
make some shapes to mark text or images.
Typewriter tools
allow users to add comments anywhere on a PDF, which doesn’t appear as
annotations. The tools include the typewriter, textbox, and callout tools. The typewriter tool
is useful to fill in non-fillable forms. The callout tool boxes are especially useful when you
want to single out (but not obscure) a particular area of a document. PhantomPDF also
provides a spell checker for typewriter and notes annotations.
Stamp tools enable users to stamp content and watermarks into a PDF document. Foxit
PhantomPDF supports image stamps with various image formats (JPEG, GIF, BMP, WMF,
etc.) and PDF file stamps. You can either create dynamic stamps which can obtain
