PDF Annotators

PDF Annotators: Most of these PDF annotator programs (KAMI, DocHubs, XODO, TextHelp PDF Reader) offer a 30-day free trial, some of the free-to-use features remain functional, but the premium tools are disabled after the 30-day trial.

KAMI (works best with a premium plan but there are licences available if you feel a student might benefit. They do not need to be a UATT referral to use KAMI. Just contact me and I can add students per your request.)

Kami is the leading PDF and document annotation app for Chrome. With Kami’s interactive tools, teachers can transform their students’ learning into a collaborative experience.

TextHelp PDF Reader by TextHelp (has free and premium features)

The TextHelp PDF annotator/mark up options are part of the premium PAID features. It's a wonderful tool but the cost is $145/year/student for the fully functional PDF annotator. The "read aloud" function does stay free and can be used as a Text to Speech program to read ePub books, PDFs et cetera for free.
