Export PDF comments as a list

Open the document and export a markup summary. Every highlight, sticky note, box, drawing and comment comes out as a list in reading order — grouped by page, and down each page rather than in the order the marks happened to be drawn. Replies stay attached to the comment they answer, so a threaded review reads as a conversation rather than as loose notes.

Both. CSV gives one row per mark with the page, type, author, date, marked text and comment, and opens directly in Excel or Sheets — it carries a byte order mark so accented names and curly quotes survive rather than arriving as mojibake. Markdown gives the same content grouped under page headings, ready to paste into a review email or an issue tracker. Plain text is there for anywhere that eats formatting.

No. This tool only reads. It loads no document, saves no document and flattens nothing — the file you have open is byte-for-byte what it was, and the output is a separate text file. That guarantee is enforced in the codebase rather than merely intended.

The redaction is listed, so the record of what was marked up is complete, but the text underneath it is never printed. A redaction captures the strings it was about to destroy, and a summary that reached for whatever text an annotation carries would write exactly that content into a file you then send to somebody. Your own note about the redaction is included; the redacted material is not.

No. The file is opened, processed and saved back by code running in this browser tab — there is no upload endpoint on our servers to send it to. You can watch the Network panel in your browser's developer tools while you work and confirm nothing carrying the document leaves the page.

Markup Summary is free, with no account required and no page or file-size caps imposed by the plan.

Yes. Once the page has loaded, every tool keeps working with the network disconnected, because the processing never depended on a server round-trip. AI features that use an on-device model need one download the first time; after that they run offline too.
