+<title>Adding annotations</title>
+<p>
+ An annotation is a note or comment added to a PDF document. You can add annotations using Atril.
+</p>
+<p>
+ When you open a file, you should have a side pane on the left side of the window.
+ If you do not have a visible side pane, click
+ <guiseq><gui style="menuitem">View</gui>
+ <gui style="menuitem">Sidepane</gui></guiseq>
+ or press the <key>F9</key> key on the keyboard.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+ At the top of the side pane, the items in the drop-down list <gui>Thumbnails</gui>, <gui>Index</gui>, <gui>Annotations</gui> and <gui>Bookmarks</gui> let you choose what to display in the side pane. (Some options may not be available for some documents).
+</p>
+<p>
+ To create an annotation:
+</p>
+<steps>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Select <gui style="button">Annotations</gui> from the drop-down list:
+ </p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Click on <gui style="button">Add</gui> to add a text annotation.
+ </p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Click on the spot in the document window you would like to add the annotation to. Your <em>annotation</em> window will open.
+ </p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Type your text into the <em>annotation</em> window.
+ </p>
+ <note>
+ <p>
+ You can resize the note by clicking and holding the left mouse button on one of the bottom corners of the note, and moving it around.
+ </p>
+ </note>
