Frequently asked
Can I resize a drawing?+
Yes. Select it and drag a corner; the stroke scales with its box. Colour, width and opacity are in the panel.
Will the drawing show in other PDF readers?+
Yes. Drawings and shapes are drawn into the page itself, so every reader and printer shows them.
Is my file uploaded?+
No. The editor runs inside your browser, so the document never leaves your device. Edits are kept as a draft on your own device until you start over.
