Ways to Highlight PDFs

Use text highlights, shapes, and comments to give precise feedback on every page of your PDF.

Text Highlights

Highlight PDF text to mark passages that need changes. Every highlight is linked to the exact selection so there's no guesswork about what to revise.

Shapes to Mark Regions

Use shapes to mark regions that need attention—images, layout areas, or blocks of content. Draw attention to specific paragraphs or design elements.

Comments on Highlighted Areas

Add comments pinned to the exact spot you highlighted. Perfect for explaining what to change and keeping feedback tied to the right location.

Color-Coded Highlights

Use different colors to categorize highlights by type, priority, or reviewer for easy organization and tracking.

Multi-Reviewer Support

Multiple team members and clients can highlight the same PDF. See who added what with clear indicators and keep feedback in one thread.

Resolution Tracking

Mark highlights and comments as resolved or unresolved. Track which feedback has been addressed and which still needs attention across review rounds.

Why Highlight PDFs in Kreatli

Highlight PDFs with precise, location-based feedback so your team and clients stay aligned and revisions move faster.

Clearer Feedback

Instead of "fix the headline on page 3," highlights point to the exact text or region. No more back-and-forth to clarify what to change.

Fewer Revision Rounds

When feedback is pinned to the right place, designers and writers can act on it immediately. Resolution tracking ensures nothing gets missed.

One Place for PDF and Video

Highlight PDFs alongside video and other assets in the same project. One review link, one approval workflow, less tool-switching.

Client-Friendly PDF Review

Clients can highlight PDFs through no-signup guest links. They add highlights and comments without creating an account, so approvals move faster.
