In this tutorial, Gary from MacMost.com discusses the PDF annotation tools in Mac Preview. He mentions that Preview on Mac is ideal for viewing PDF documents, and shows how to use Markup Tools to add annotations without changing the original PDF content. For making actual changes to the content, users should go back to the source document (Pages, Word, etc.) and create a new PDF version. Markup tools can be used to add notes, editors' notes, text, and signatures to the document. Join MacMost's Patreon campaign for exclusive content and course discounts.
