COMMENTS AND REPLIES SDK

View and add comments to PDF documents

Easily start and participate in conversations with Nutrient’s proprietary real-time comment collaboration, or choose PDF-native comments and replies for improved asynchronous collaboration.

How it works

Enhancing communication in document-centric collaboration

Empower your users to engage in document discussions with a sleek, user-friendly interface for viewing and adding comments.

step 1

Create a username to add, edit, and delete comments. Setting the username to Admin allows you to edit and delete all comments.

Step 2

Add new comments from the main toolbar or using markup annotations. Manage the list of users who can be mentioned in comments.

step 3

Instantly sync comments in server-backed applications using Instant, or save them as annotations in standalone web apps.
