Annotate PDF for consultants
Updated July 2026
Arthize lets consultants and advisory teams annotate a PDF in a private workspace — free, with no watermark. Annotating a PDF adds highlights, comments, shapes and notes on top of the page, so you can mark up a document without changing its text.
Why consultants annotate a PDF
A consultant merges a deck, appendix and data model into one deliverable, exports it to a fixed PDF, and password-protects it before sending to the client under NDA.
Built for reports. Whether it's reports, decks, models, Arthize's annotate pdf keeps the work inside your private workspace. Client deliverables are confidential and often under NDA; private processing is essential.
What matters when you annotate a PDF
Annotations sit on top of the page and don't change the underlying text.
You can highlight, comment, draw and add notes.
Annotated files are ideal for review and feedback.
