It allows users to highlight, draw, comment, and collaborate directly on top of any document — all within your ASP.NET, MVC, Core, or Blazor application.
No external tools. No file downloads. Just seamless in-browser annotation for every supported format — Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, CAD, and Images.
