Support for Free Text, Hand Drawing, Image Support in GemBox.PdfViewer

We have released a new version of GemBox.PdfViewer with support for adding free text, hand drawing, and image annotations to PDF documents opened in a browser.

You can now insert custom free text annotations directly on any page of a document. This is ideal for document review workflows, since users can type their comments or notes right where they belong, without leaving the browser.

You can also draw freely with a pen-like hand-drawing tool on any page. Users can sketch, circle, or mark up their documents directly on the canvas, using either a mouse or a touch interface.

In addition, users can insert images on any page of the document: diagrams, logos, signatures, or any other visual element they need to add to a PDF.

All three annotation tools are enabled by default in the toolbar, and you can show or hide them programmatically.

You can read our How to add free text to a PDF, How to add hand drawing to a PDF, and How to add images to a PDF examples to learn how to implement these annotations in your application.

You can download the latest version from NuGet, NPM, or the Downloads page.

If you have any questions, complaints, or suggestions, feel free to contact us.
