  4. Please provide a way to decrease the size of the PDF's. I mark student work all the time sent to me from iOS devices - the only ones that I can not seem to decrease the size of using every technique in my arsenal are ones from GOODNOTES - inside I am saying, "BADNOTES, BADNOTES" - please fix this - thanks. For example the builtin DOC scanner in the iOS notes creates PDF's that are a very reasonable size. Thanks

  7. Sehr sinnvoll wäre für mich, wenn ich ein Kamera-Fenster aufziehen könnte, in dem das Kamera-Livebild gezeigt wird. Sehr sinnvoll in der Schule, wenn etwas demonstriert werden soll und gleichzeitig wichtige Inhalte zu sehen sein sollen.

  8. When I scan a multi-page document through GoodNotes or import a scanned document, the saved quality is not sufficient, so that - in contrast to Notify - not all text passages are found when searching.

    This is clear if you look at the file sizes between Notify and GoodNotes during the backup.

  13. I like how the patch tool works in Photoshop, and I think it would be useful in GoodNotes too. I would use it to edit diagrams and remove parts, such as labels, that I do not want. Here is an example of how the patch tool works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=II4lfxoNrJ8
    Even though the patch tool is commonly used to edit photographs, it can definitely be used for editing illustrations too. I have used the patch tool in Photoshop before, and I started seeing the need for it again as I was trying to prepare diagrams for GoodNotes. I feel that it would…

  15. Currently enabling or disabling auto advance requires 4 'clicks': 1. the 'three dots' menu button 2. document editing 3. enabling/disabling auto advance 4. closing the menu window.

    As someone who frequently switches between marking up documents (where I don't use auto advance) and my own notebooks (where I do use auto advance), it can be annoying to have to go through this process tens of times per day.

    It would be nice if there was a shortcut, or if one could optionally pin the auto advance option to the toolbar.

    Cheers!

  18. After editing a shape we should be able to touch the screen once with the Apple Pencil to “click out” of the shape editing mode. Each time I do this a mark is created because the pencil goes right back into writing/drawing mode

  20. It would be ideal to have the ability to be able to change highlighted text to a different colour without using the lasso tool on every single different page where that colour is found. It would also be neat to be able to select a page range to change all of a certain highlight colour to a different colour (Ex, having blue and yellow highlight on multiple pages but now wanting to change the yellow highlight to pink, etc.). Almost the same idea for printing specific pages, you'll be able to select single page, range, or entire document and the…
