taking notes on pdf with this I was wondering whether I can use this tablet to scribble notes on a pdf file? or is there any programs (acrobat?) that allow me to do so?

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.

I do not use the tablet for drawing. I use it most always for 3D modeling rather than a mouse. My uneducated guess is that it is an excellent and less expensive choice for graphics/drawing. My only complaint is a lack of a software settable pressure threshold as the pen engages with the slightest touch to the tablet.

Sven Golly, does it not do scan to PDF anymore? My old one (I'm looking for a replacement) used to go directly to PDF and after copy-paste, you could edit the text.

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 &gt; Comment

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

No you can't use a USB keyboard. Notes are tied to the book that you make the notes. You can sync the notes into the software on the computer. The handwriting note is seperate file but you'll need the stylus. I don't know if you hack the android os that it's build on if that will help.

mine does. maybe I have a later model. but only if the page or app allows it. you can use it for pdf file and web pages etc.

It is supposed to be able to do so, but I just tried and it did not work. However, I am a beta tester for Acrobat and the Acrobat file was created using a beta version of Acrobat, so I suspect it does work on files created by released versions of pdf programs.

I have a Bluetooth key board, so I don't use the stylus for note taking a alot. The times I have it seems to work great, the length does help keep the other fingers and palm of the tablet. It might require some practice to adjust from what you may be currently using.

don't think you can write on the Notes app only type. You can get an app like WritePad that let's you right. I haven't had any problems with these on any of the apps I have that are specifically made for writing or drawing.

I don't know specifics of the iPad capabilities, but the data is in .pdf format, so any device that can read Adobe .pdf files should be able to view the documents in the same ways other .pdf files can be viewed. If the iPad can't do that, it may not be possible, or there may be an app available that would allow .pdf viewing. After viewing another users answer I can concur that some devices ot versions of pdf readers do leave a transparent but annoying Marvel logo visible. I haven't run into it in a while, and if it is a bother I would check to see if an updated version of an Adobe pdf reader is available.

I have a related question. My primary use for it would be to read technical PDF files (with equations and color figures). The screen size at 10.1 " and 1000x600 resolution seems quite good, but I would like to know if anyone has compared it to the HP Mini-Note which has a 1280x768 resolution, but at a 8.9" screen size.

This stylus would be great for taking notes, however there are cheaper options that would work just as well. The main feature of this one is that it has multiple levels of pressure sensitivity. This is great for drawing, but if you're only taking notes you might not need that feature. You could go with the Jot Flip, Jot Pro, & Jot Script.

It is not on the tablet. However, I use this for my college classes. From the Google Play app store, I downloaded 3 apps that are WONDERFUL & do support Microsoft Word, Excel and Power Point: Opera (mobile web browser), Evernote (downloaded on my laptop too b/c it syns with my tablet via email address) and Quickoffice Pro (this is the app that creates & edits Word, Excel and PPT documents).I found that I needed Opera to download & open PPT files from my school site. Then, I use Office Pro to edit and create documents while on my tablet. I save these to Evernote & can pull them up on my laptop at home to finish working on them or print them out.Hope this helps!

With all the other types of "note taking" devices on the market, I wouldn't recommend the Wacom Inkling as a "note taker" because its design is geared more towards sketching, then using that sketch in a software graphics program... Everyone is different when it comes to "note taking"; personally, I find it easier to just use a recording device (digital or tape, your choice), then playing back the recording later on to pull out the key points of what the speaker presented... Scribbling notes, for me at least, while someone is lecturing or giving a talk takes my attention away from what is being presented at the moment... In the end, as I'm sure you understand, the choice is yours... Good luck and happy note taking...!

Dear Customer, kindly note that you don't need additional software to use the tablet for annotation for Microsoft Word. Please refer to the MS Word help page and search "ink annotation" for detailed information. Thank you!
