Step 1: Find Your PDF Hunter

Navigate the web with your Chrome browser like a pro on your Android device and tap on a PDF link if you come across one. Ta-da! The PDF will magically appear within the browser.

With the PDF displayed, you got the power to zoom in/out, scroll, or select text just as you would on a regular web page. Rock 'n' roll! Want to find a specific word in your PDF? Tap the three-dot button in the top-right corner and choose Find in page, enter your search term, and bam! Instant search results will pop up.

Step 3: Drop Your Marks

To annotate the PDF, tap the blue button in the bottom-right corner of the screen. By default, you'll start off with a pen to draw lines, but you can choose a different color or thickness by tapping the pen icon. Still, want to make your notes stand out? Tap the highlighter icon (next to the pen) and move your finger across the text or PDF parts you wish to highlight. Slide the undo/redo icons to correct any errors or mistakes, or use the eraser icon to wipe away unnecessary lines or highlighted sections.

Step 4: Save Your Work

Once you're done marking up the PDF, tap Save Copy in the top-right corner. Decide where to store your new masterpiece - Drive or another location by selecting the Location dropdown menu. Ready to roll? Confirm by tapping Upload and voilà!
