# Annotations demo

This sample application demonstrates DocuVieware as a book reader application.

A sample PDF is loaded on start. Load your own documents from your local file system or from a URI and annotate them using the dedicated toolbar buttons.

[Try demo](https://www.docuvieware-demo.com/annotations_demo.aspx)

This book is a PDF file that already contains several annotations on the first page that you can edit, move, or delete. You also have access to the annotation snap-in, which contains all the supported annotation types.
