Questions
Can it open big drawing sets?
Yes. Only the pages you are looking at are drawn, so a set of large sheets scrolls smoothly. Very big files depend on how much memory your device has.
How do I zoom?
Use the + and - buttons, Fit width or Actual size. On a computer you can also hold Ctrl (or Cmd) and scroll, or pinch on a trackpad.
Can I add notes or markups?
Press Open in Survey. The PDF opens in the Survey app on this site, where you can add pens, shapes, clouds, text and counts for free.
Are my files uploaded?
No. The tool runs in your browser, so your files never leave your device. Nothing is sent to us or kept after you close the tab.
Is it free?
Yes. There is no sign-up, no watermark on your file and no daily limit.
Is there a file size limit?
Only what your device can hold in memory. Most phones handle files of a few hundred MB; a computer handles more.
