well, i don’t see a winner posted yet..so perhaps i may get lucky with a late entry.

I just got a tablet about a month ago & loving it. Still learning alot of things & discovering what tools will be good for me.

I would love to have this software in my medical studies where lots of notes are found in pdf not to mention the endless journal articles that are all electronic these days.

Best of luck to all!

It’s very convenient not having huge stacks of papers (not to mention greener). Having all my annotated papers on my hard drive allows me to search them, back them up and more efficiently files them.

With a tablet HP 2710p on the “go” as an EMT with a local hospital 911 service and local fire dept. medical response calls, filling in reading-study times and marking notes on the pdf books would be a tremendous practical value. Sharing the “markups” with others would greatly facilitate communication, coordination and completion of certain projects as well. Pdf documents in books, etc. give such power to achieve so much more than our previous paper, pencil and pen culture could hardly dream about. Bring it on.

I love PDF Annotator, but I just can’t fork over the money for an upgrade. I absolutely use it all the time after scanning in textbooks.

I Suspect the deadline has passed – I annotate students’ assignments by converting pdf into an image using Journal. Annotator would be miles better!

I would annotate PDFs with my signature, rather than faxing a signed hard copy.

As a teacher I use PDF’s all th time to create handouts for students. I would love to be able to mark their work electronically by annotating a PDF and sending it back to them. Usual story, schools have no money tho.

As a student, PDF Annotator would help with my regular class workflow (as I already am going mostly paperless already). I would like to see an up-to-date comparison with Bluebeam’s PDF Revu though.

This would be so useful for my classes; I am in university in Engineering. All the professors insist on giving all their notes in PDF format. I usually print them out and bring them to class with me, but this would save so much time and paper. No more waiting in line at the printer… :)

This would be so useful in the classroom when listening to children read and noting their reading behaviours.

PDF Annotator would save me a chaotic and full desk full of medical papers. I could annotate medical articles without the clutter of lines, annotations and highlights in the original document. Everything is nice and clean on my tablet pc. I can also now annotate and perhaps sign documents and send them directly over e-mail, inproving efficiciency and saving time for myself and my personal life. With the current paper trail I make, I can perhaps also save some trees and go green.

Good URL replacing the one above

PDF Annotator is on one of great alternative ways to correct student’s copies, with handwritten annotation directly on your tablets instead of printing.

I already worked with the previous version of PDF Annotator in school and found it very useful to annotate lecture materials (mostly print-outs of PowerPoint slides) provided by the lecturer.
It’s especially effective to work with documents in fullscreen mode and portrait orientation, and with the new features in PDF Annotator (improved fullscreen and bookmark functions), it should be even easier to replace “traditional” paper documents in class. After all, which folder can hold a semester’s worth of print-outs in 10 different courses?

I will use PDF Annotator for school. As a tablet pc enthusiast, I find that the lack of tools for pen support in readers is “so behind the times”. There are solutions but this application really keeps the tablet user in mind.

Ok, I was enthused when I purchased my first version. I could annotate the many research papers that I download. BUT this program has saved me money! I do much field service work and had used triplicate work order/conformation forms for clients to sign. It was time to reorder the expensive carbonless forms and then have to deal with filing them. Well, with PDF annotator I scanned in one form and with my tablet PC I fill in the blanks have the client sign my screen, print out a copy with a small wireless printer thatÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s the end of it. When it comes time for billing I attach a copy to the bill. The new forms cost more than Annotator and the printer combined. IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢m happy.
