A Clean Copy, No Markup

Review copies of PDFs fill up with highlights, sticky notes and comments. When it is time to share a final, clean version — or to remove a reviewer's private remarks before forwarding — this tool clears the annotation layer from every page, leaving just the document.

It removes the markup while keeping the underlying page content intact. (To permanently black out text, use the Redact tool instead.)

Cleaned in Your Browser

Annotations are removed with pdf-lib on your device. Nothing is uploaded.

Remove Annotations — Frequently Asked Questions

What does it remove?

Comments, highlights, sticky notes and other annotations on every page.

Is this the same as redaction?

No — redaction permanently removes content. This clears review markup. Use Redact PDF to hide text.

Is my file uploaded?

No — it runs entirely in your browser.
