Preview Toolbar
When hovering your mouse cursor over the document in preview, a black strip with different icons will appear. That’s the Preview Toolbar, which contains various tools to make screening the content of the document easier for you and also several action buttons.
These are the actions available in the preview toolbar:
The description of each icon becomes visible when you hover your mouse over the icon.
The icon/action selection can differ by Circularo edition.

Annotations
Availability: Business and Enterprise
Users can add text, highlight any text in the document, or draw shapes and lines during the document preview.
This feature is useful and time-saving for the participants of the document’s creation and signing process, since they are now able to communicate their suggestions and objections to each other clearly, easily, and without having to reject the document first.
Keep in mind that every time you annotate a PDF document, the annotation will become a part of the PDF file and cannot be removed!
Different annotation options become visible upon clicking on Annotations at the bottom of the page.
There are many customization options available when adding annotations such as font, color, or text alignment.
Toggle thumbnails
Page thumbnails can be turned on to make the navigation across multi-page documents easier. That way, you can quickly find the page you are looking for.
