The Notes tool in the NIVOMAX Viewer allows users to add text annotations, similar to comments in document markup systems. This feature is particularly useful for reviewing and annotating PDF documents and HTML content where text strings are not rasterized.
Enabling and Using the Notes Tool
Activate the Tool: Click the 
Notes icon located on the Tab Toolbar. This action enables the Notes tool and displays the List of Notes in the Right Feature Panel.
If this icon is absent, the feature is unavailable for the current document.
Creating a Note
