Highlighting text within PDF files on tablet? Does anyone have insight about using the tablet screen and pen to view and highlight text within PDF files using Acrobat or Foxit Reader?

Using the stylus and/or touch is pretty much like using a mouse, so yes, you should be able to highlight text. I don't recommend you use the pencil tool in Acrobat though; it doesn't deliver good performance with a stylus pen.

I do have the full version of Acrobat and Foxit, both of which I can use on my current laptop to highlight or mark up the text. Was curious if I'll be able to do the same with the touch tablet.

Do you have Acrobat Reader or Professional? I'm not sure if Reader has highlighting ability, and I can't check since I have professional, but the highlighting tools should be under Comments > Comment

It's been awhile, but I was able to select how the document would be saved. I chose a TXT file, and could edit it and save in in a DOCX format for MSWord. I never used the pdf setting.

ok so i will see what i can do to help first what pdf reader did you end up installing? and did you transfer them to sd or the internal tablet memory? If so one thing that you can try is plug the tablet back into your pc see what file or location they are at then target it that way. If you are uncertin as to how to do this let me know what reader you are using and i will run the same on mine and give you a walk threw.Robert.d.geier@g-m-a-i-l if you have any further questions

Unfortunately, only on .PDF format, the device will not display .EPUB ebooks on Arabic correctly since is not supported.

a quick double click of one finger then hold and swipe that finger over the text you want to highlight. The pad comes with a great guide that takes you though all the different commands, I believe this is on that guide as well.

In the "mouse mode" it has moved the cursor on the screen which could be useful. However, I do not know of any specific functions that work with Adobe Acrobat, mainly Keynote and PowerPoint. It does work with Mac or PC. I hope this helps you!

Strange, I just scanned legal pages using the ADF and it worked just fine without the paper size having to be set in the Navigator app. I assumed it just scanned until it hit the end of the page and as far as I can tell the software handled it perfectly. Acrobat thinks the PDF page size is 13.59", so maybe that's an issue if you need it to know that it's actually 14", but otherwise my experience is that it's painless to scan either letter or legal via the ADF.

I've got a number of books in epub and pdf format currently loaded on my Galaxy Tab. Admittedly, I'm using the Adobe PDF app and the Moon+ Reader app, so if you count Kindle, I'm juggling three different apps for ebooks at the moment.

you need a application, such as Annotation. You can open PDF file on that application and add notes on it. And I believe this device is good enough for taking note. But it's hard to write small size words. And also you need to optimize window system. (you can find how to optimize on forum web sites.

No, you do not see what you draw on the tablet. The tablet is connected through a USB connection and you draw with the Wacom pen on the tablet and the image is viewed on your computer screen. You must be in a program like Paint to see a drawing. I use Corel Painter to create images. The Pen acts somewhat like a mouse. You can click on things with it, for instance, click to open programs or even write with it and the program recognizes your handwriting and turns it into text.

Yes, the pen will read each word if pointed on the word or if you touch a particular icon it can just read the whole story while child listens along without pointing pen to each word. There are also books that are more interactive and pen can be used to quiz kids on material and they have to select answers on page using pen. Its a good tool to bridge gap before getting kids in habit of tablets and video game mode. That said, it may be transitional period of entertainment. We paid for it knowing our younger child will get use out of it next and we weren't ready for older one to have tablet yet before establishing basic reading skills.

Yes.. If you are asking if it can allow you to view your pdf.. It is not an output device. It works only as an input device. Once your written script is saved, it will pull up a saved PDF of the note when you connect to your computer or Smartphone.You cannot view anything on this.. even your own written notes that have been previously saved.

I can only answer number one as yes. I really have only used it for data files such as word and excel. I have viewed PDFs and they look fine on my iPad and iPhone.

Can someone talk about the 7's performance with reading PDFs? I am looking for a device that will offer the ability to read research papers in PDF when i'm away from my computer. Is there lag during switching pages? My old archos (504) was worthless for reading PDF files.thanks in advance for the info,- Deidra

I was able to scan sheet music using the book mode and then I imported into my iPad and was able to use it directly in a pdf reader. I use Evernote, but any will do! I did not have any alignment problems.
