How to Annotate Scanned PDF

1. Standard text boxes — included in a document where it is convenient and suitable;

2. Sticky notes — attached over the content of a document

With pdfFiller functionality, not only can you fill out and edit PDFs and other types of text documents, but you can also annotate scanned PDFs and guide recipients through a document’s content. Alternatively, notes are helpful in terms of your own revisions to a document. pdfFiller has two types of note tools: To comment using a text box, select Text Box in the toolbar and click where you'd like to place the box in the document. To resize a text box, drag its corners or edges. To change the color of its border, click the color icon that says Box in the formatting toolbar and select the color that you want. To change the color of the box itself, click Background and choose the color:

To enter text in a box, click inside and start typing. When you annotate a scanned PDF file, you can change the font type of the note. Simply click the box with the current font name in the formatting toolbar and choose from the dropdown menu. You can change the font size by clicking the number next to the font and selecting from the dropdown list. To underline your text, make it bold or italicized, use the U, B, and I icons. To change the text color, click the color box on the right of the font tools and select the color you want:

To add annotations to a PDF scan in a sticky note, while in the editor, select Sticky:

Click where you'd like to place the note while adding annotations in PDF files. To resize the note, drag its corners or edges. To change its color, click the yellow icon that says Box and select the color you want. To enter your comment, click inside the note and start typing. You can format your text using the above-mentioned tools:

In addition, you can easily remove a sticky note or a text box from the document. To do this, just click it and then click the trash icon:

What do you like best?
The best feature of PDFFiller is its ease of use, whether it's editing documents, signing documents, and then being able to access your documents anywhere by logging onto the site, as opposed to being constrained if you don't have your computer files with you.
What do you dislike?
Some of the option menus should be improved upon, especially as far as layout and ease of finding what you need, it's a bit counterintuitive though with experience that becomes less of an issue.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Signing PDFs with ease. Being able to access and edit a pdf no matter where I am as long as I have internet access, even if I don't have my computer with me and/or don't have access to my cloud storage.
