Free PDF Proofing for Brochures, Decks and Print

Drop a PDF, send one review link, and get comments pinned to the exact spot on each page. Then work through them as a to-do list — tick each one off, search them, export them — and publish the corrected PDF as the next version of the same link.

Pages are drawn in your browser and uploaded only when you create a link. Links need a free account; reviewers need nothing.
What reviewers get

A document, not a pile of attachments.

Reads like the document

One page at a time with thumbnails, arrow-key paging and the page's real size in millimetres. Search finds words in the page text as well as in the comments.

Comments on the spot

A pin, a box or an arrow on the page, a note under it, and replies in a thread. Reviewers type a name and start — no sign-up on their side.

A to-do list for you

Comments are grouped by page. Tick each one off as you fix it, or clear the lot with All done. A progress line shows what is left; export it all as CSV.

Rounds, not re-sends

Publish the corrected PDF as a new version of the same link. Reviewers compare rounds, with an overlay view that makes a moved line stand out.

How it works

Drop, share, tick off.

1

Drop the PDF

Open PDF Proofing and drop a PDF — or JPG, PNG and WebP proofs. Each page, up to 40 per PDF, is drawn in your browser and becomes a page of the reader.

2

Send one link

Create the review link and send it. You get an email when someone comments or approves, and every comment has its own link you can point a colleague at.

3

Work the list

Open the comments page by page, tick them off as you fix them, and publish the corrected PDF as the next version. Export the list as CSV if your tracker lives elsewhere.

Why ours

Made for documents, not squeezed into an ad tool.

Nothing uploaded until you share

The PDF is opened and drawn in your browser. Only creating a link uploads the pages, and you can take a link down any time. PRO adds an optional passcode.

PDFs or images

A brochure as a PDF, or a flyer and a print ad as JPG, PNG or WebP — images become the pages of one document, in file-name order. Several PDFs? Each is its own document on the board.

Your name on the link

On a white-label plan review links are served from your own domain with your logo — the reviewer never sees us.

More free browser tools

Proof, preview and deliver in one studio.

Put a campaign's ads on a Preview Generator board, mark up single creatives in Creative Review, compare retouched images with Before/After Preview, and deliver the final files with Send Files.

FAQ

Quick answers.

What happens to my PDF?
It is opened in your browser — each page is drawn to an image there, up to 40 pages per PDF. Images work too: JPG, PNG or WebP proofs become the pages of one document, in file-name order. Nothing is uploaded while you look through it. Pages are uploaded only when you create a review link, because the reviewer has to be able to open it. Creating a link needs a free account.
Do reviewers need an account?
No. Anyone with the link can read the document, leave comments, pin marks on a page and approve — they type a name and that is all. You get an email when someone comments or approves.
How do I work through the feedback?
Every comment sits in a list grouped by page. Tick each one off as you fix it, or clear the whole list with All done. A progress line shows how many are left, you can search the comments and the page text, jump to any page, and export the list as a CSV for your tracker.
Can I send a revised PDF?
Yes. Publish the corrected PDF as a new version of the same link, and reviewers can compare the two rounds. For stills there is an overlay compare with a difference view, so a moved line or a changed word stands out.
Can I point someone at one comment?
Yes. Every comment has its own link. Opening it jumps straight to that page with the comment selected.
What do the limits look like?
Free: 5 review links a month (1 a day), each live for 3 days, up to 6 MB. PRO: 50 a month, live for 30 days or with no expiry, up to 22 MB, plus an optional passcode. The Agency pack makes links unlimited.
How is this different from Preview Generator?
Preview Generator is for ads — banners, video and HTML5 units at their true size. PDF Proofing is for documents: brochures, decks, flyers and print ads, read page by page. They are separate tools with separate boards, built on the same engine, so review links, comments and approvals work the same way in both.
Can the link carry my studio's name instead of yours?
Yes. With the Agency pack ($30 a month — unlimited hosted links and +50 GB storage included) review links go out on preview.your-agency.com, with your logo and no mention of us — plus a subdomain for each client. See how it works.

One link for every round of the proof.

Free to open and read, with review links on a free account. Comments pinned to the page, a list you can tick off, and the next version on the same link.
