Editing Documents with Annotations in M-Files | Intelligent Information Management

Oct 22, 2020

You can add various comments and stamps, as well as draw arrows, boxes and other shapes to your documents. The feature supports most common file types, including Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint and Visio documents, email files, RTF files, HTML and web archive files as well as OpenDocument files and PDF documents.

Note: The annotations are not added to the documents themselves, but rather as detachable layers that can also be hidden if need be.
