Video instructions and help with filling out and completing draw on pdf mac

Hi we're on a Macintosh computer and we want to annotate or fill out a PDF document and we don't want to download any other programs that might cost us money or add add junk on to our computer so the default program when you open a PDF is actually called preview and preview is very useful there you go preview I'm going to show you how to annotate two different types of documents this is one that has been scanned in and it needs a signature down here or a sign and date down there and one of them is a very clean looking document that has obviously never been scanned in it was created on a computer okay the clean one's really easy preview actually recognizes areas where you want to add text and so you could you can just click on it and add it the the tricks I'm going to show you in this rugged-looking one are going to be useful no matter what but the rugged-looking one you need to add information down here first I want you to recognize there's a little box here this tool box show markup toolbar gives you a lot of functionality one of those is adding a text box when you click on that it will throw a little text box down there and then you can add your name to that area and you can move it around and you can click and add these text box text boxes as much as you want and and you can just keep adding to fill out this crappy scanned in document okay and so on and so forth okay now in in this document again you can just click and and keep saying things okay or keep writing sometimes you might want to highlight some text okay in that situation there is a little tool and it's actually right here called highlight other times you might want to mark out text you don't want that included in a document and then you can mark it out with this strike three O'Toole here going back to the poorly scanned in document which is all too often what you'll get if you wanted to mark something on here you're gonna have to be a little creative in this situation I like to use the shapes tools one of those is a line when you click on that it throws a line in here that you can add anywhere you'll notice that this line is perfectly straight this documents been scanned in well but if it's a document that hasn't been scanned in well you might need it crooked by dragging here but you get the idea and that allows you to cross through text sometimes if I want to draw attention because I don't know how to highlight this document if it doesn't recognize the text is I will actually go over to the shapes again and I'll draw a circle
