PDF-Notes

Without a doubt the fastest PDF reader that I have tried. In my work I open full size drawings for construction and previously all other readers were extremely slow. Now I feel like the ipad2 has finally reached its full potential!

does this App offer mass files back up?

I bought the PDF-notes app last month and found it very useful, so far I ve got more than 250 articles on it, sort of a walking Library, depends on it for my daily reading, HOWEVER, I realized that this App does not offer an option to back up the files (mass files backup), it allows only back up one by one article-separately- and with 250 articles, it is not practical at all, THE PROBLEM that all my articles had been annotated and a lot of sticky notes been added too, furthermore I add 2 to 5 articles every day to the library and I am worry what would happen when the App gets infected with a bug and stop responding then I loose all my library, Any suggestion beside backing up the files one by one ? Admin please help

Great app, but can improve

I use it with a stylus to review manuscripts, and to take note in articles as I read them.
One thing that needs it wrist protector, much like in UPAD or others, something that can be moved easily.
For quick exchange of tool, like color pencils and erasers, can I suggest to have an optional and custom roulette that will not disappear after few seconds.

Issues since 2.0 upgrade, plus never able to maintain zoom on entire page once switching pages

Since the upgrade, a number of PDFs show up in the bookshelf with pictured with the wrong front page, and although l like the speed that PDF-notes moves through pages, it's annoying that although the app can lock a zoom, that zoom is not held over the whole page, just what appears on the screen; in fact it doesn't allow scrolling down the page when locked, and that the zoom returns to default when moving to the next page. This seems like an easy fix. Many free PDF reader apps such as Cloudreader do this, so why can't PDF-notes?

AWESOME!

Started with the free version and had to get the full blown and have used it ever since! It's awesome! I'm so fearful it would crash on me during live program during church services with my music leading but has not failed yet! Very Reliable! One request: I do wish that the next upgrade will allow me to flip the bookmarks quicker especially when i'm playing the piano and switching from one song to another. Otherwise, this is the best pdf program to use in live music performances and church congregational song leading! Now this new software upgrade seems like it made it even faster to run! Keep up the great work!

Disappointed!

I was REALLY excited about this app at first - I bought the full cost version after poking around a bit with the free one. It is super easy to use. Navigating and making annotations works very very well after you get the hang of it, especially the ability to change pens with a tri-finger tap, undo by swiping with three fingers, easy navigation by swiping with two fingers, etc. I was well impressed and spent 3 hours annotating a paper for a colleague. Unfortunately, when I tried to send it to her, she received a mess with all my errors, scribbles and erased annotations! SO disappointed! This is a great tool if you are a student looking to annotate for yourself, but not useful if you want to share annotated files. Wished I'd tried sending one before buying the full version.

Good app

Be really happy when I can add notes. Also hope one day I can one day pull out text or pages from larger documents, after importing them. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to seeing where you go with it in the future. Works great so far.

Absolutely fantastic

Well worth the investment. Viewing PDFs is now interactive, just like the paper copies.

The best pdf application for ipad

Outstanding application, very fast as advertised. Expect to be amazed. However you cannot fill in interactive pdf forms output from acrobat pro. I thought it does that as well but not yet.

Great support by the developer.#

The only problem is that I cannot get it in the OPEN IN menu as i have other pdf readers installed. I was asked by the developer to uninstall other applicatoins and I finally managed ot get it in my OPEN IN menu, temporarily. When i re installed my other pdf readers, the pdf notes app was taken out of the OPEN IN menu once more. The developer said that this is an issue APPLE has to sort out.

One of the best

PDF notes is a great app. As a public speaker. I use my iPad to speak off of PDF files. PDF notes is the one app I've found that let's me zoom into a page and lock all of the pages to that zoom level. I believe the program calls it "crop lock". Most PDF programs shrink the page back to normal size every time you turn pages. Only feature missing ... Which they assure me is coming soon... Is the ability to type notes onto the PDF

I've tried lots of PDF apps and this is the best one to use for speaking and marking speaking notes.
