Click on the left-hand most icon, the one that looks like an eye. When you select a pdf file in EV, you should see the PDF viewing toolbar appear at the top of the Note/Note Panel. It's actually pretty simple though surprisingly, it appears to be undocumented.
#CAN YOU HIGHLIGHT A DOC FILE IN GOODREADER APP HOW TO#
Someone else may have already answered this question but I just figured out how to highlight PDFs in EV for Windows, at least on a PC that Adobe Acrobat installed (as my laptop does). But why not #2? Is there a reason I can't use "Open in." to do a roundtrip of a PDF embedded in a note so that I can highlight in a third party app and replace the original file in the note?Īny thoughts on this would be appreciated, particularly if there's currently a way to do this on iOS that I'm not aware of. It seems that #1 is not possible with Evernote's current API (PDFPen kind of does it, but very poorly), and I suspect this isn't a priority for Evernote seeing as it how it isn't an actual file manager.
I can use the official Dropbox app to open a PDF in one of the aforementioned apps, and when I open it back into Dropbox it asks if I want to replace the existing file. Their API lets people download and upload filesĢ.
This, as far as I know, is impossible in Evernote - please correct me if I'm wrong.ĭropbox allows this sort of highlighting from third parties in two ways:ġ. However, the one thing that I never have a good answer for is: "What about highlighting papers on my iPad?" When they ask this, they are referring to Preview/Adobe Reader/GoodReader/Readdle-style highlighting, wherein you're dealing with an OCRed document and highlighting actual text, as opposed to drawing a translucent line on top of document text. I'm a big, big fan of Evernote, and as a student I recommend it highly to my colleagues and professors.
