Annotating PDFs with Xodo means that you can input your markups and comments ensures you can seamlessly match up your edits as closely as possible by offering up flexible options to work with your text:
For more complex and industry-specific PDFs that contain blueprints, floor plans, or design specifications, Xodo offers refined shape annotations. You can select from the options of adding circle, polygon, and cloud shapes or insert different types of lines, arrows and arcs.
Got private and confidential details you don’t want to share in your PDF? No problem! We’ve got you covered. You can instantly black out text in a PDF and ensure that your sensitive information stays private. By selecting the Redact option, you can start highlighting and redacting the text from your PDF.
With PDFs that need supplementary content or document status indicators, Xodo has the most common tools to let you insert exactly what you need. Insert standard stamps or create your own to indicate a document’s status or any action needed by the recipient. Or insert images, attachments or call outs.
Xodo is advanced enough to include annotations where you can add area measurements with preset or customized scaling values. Accurately convey any measurement data you need for your team members directly on the page and content you need it on.
Xodo makes it simple for you to focus only the content on the page that you need. Get rid of white space, unnecessary text, images or tables, and eliminate wide margins.
You can do this with the Edit option which allows you to crop your PDF pages and keep the content you select. You can customize how you crop PDFs or select from preset cropping settings to instantly cut your PDF pages down to a standard size.
PDF forms can also be edited and filled out by adding checkmarks, filling fields with text, adding an image signature, signing date, and standard or custom stamps. Upload your PDF form, fill it out, and simply download your completed form.
