Does this tool remove all types of annotations from PDFs?

Yes, the tool removes all common types of PDF annotations including text comments, highlights, stamps, sticky notes, drawing marks, and other markup. It analyzes your document and provides a breakdown of removed annotations by type.

Will removing annotations affect the original document content?

No, the tool preserves all original content including text, images, charts, and formatting. Only annotations, comments, and markup are removed. Your document's core content remains completely intact.

What happens to the file size after removing annotations?

File size typically reduces after annotation removal, especially for documents with many comments or highlights. The tool shows the exact percentage reduction in the results. Some documents may see minimal size change if they had few annotations.

Can I undo the annotation removal if I change my mind?

No, the annotation removal process is irreversible. The tool creates a new clean PDF without annotations. If you need to preserve the original annotated version, we recommend downloading and saving both versions.

Is my document secure during the annotation removal process?

Absolutely! All processing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your PDF files never leave your device or get uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security of your documents.

What if my PDF has password protection or encryption?

The tool cannot process password-protected or encrypted PDFs because it cannot access the content without the correct password. You'll need to unlock the PDF first, then upload it for annotation removal.
