After a document goes through review, it can be covered in sticky notes, highlights and comments. That is great for collaboration, but you do not want reviewers’ remarks visible in the version you send to a client.
What counts as an annotation?
Annotations are items added on top of the page: comments, sticky notes, highlights, underlines, drawings and stamps. They are separate from the original page content, which is why they can be removed cleanly.

Important
This removes items added on top of the page. It does not remove text that is part of the page itself. Always check the final file, and keep your annotated original if you still need the feedback.
