Underline PDF text online for review

Underline words in a PDF when you need to mark a clause, citation, definition, or sentence without covering the original text. Drag across the exact text, choose a color, and review the annotation before downloading.

The underline is saved as a PDF text-markup annotation rather than a painted line. Use strikethrough for proposed deletions and highlight for passages that need broader visual emphasis.
