<title>Adding annotations</title>
|
|
<p>
|
|
An annotation is a note or comment added to a PDF document. You can add annotations using the <app>document viewer</app>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
When you open a file, you should have a side pane on the left side of the window.
|
|
If you do not have a visible side pane, click the <gui style="button">Side pane</gui>
|
|
button in the top-left corner, or press the <key>F9</key> key on the keyboard.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
At the bottom of the side pane, the buttons <gui>Thumbnails</gui>, <gui>Outline</gui>, <gui>Annotations</gui> and <gui>Bookmarks</gui> let you choose what to display in the side pane. (Some options may not be available for some documents).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
To create an annotation:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<steps>
|
|
<item>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Select the <gui style="button">Annotate the document</gui> button from the header bar:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<media type="image" src="figures/add-text-annotation.png" its:translate="no"/>
|
|
<list>
|
|
<item>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You should now see <gui style="button">Note text</gui> and <gui style="button">Highlight text</gui> buttons below the header bar.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</item>
|
|
</list>
|
