24 Oct 202524 minutes to read

The PDF Viewer control provides options to add, edit, and delete free text annotations.

Add a free text annotation to the PDF document

Free text annotations can be added to the PDF document using the annotation toolbar.

Click the Edit Annotation button in the PDF Viewer toolbar. The annotation toolbar appears below it.
Select the Free Text Annotation button to enable free text annotation mode.
