  1. After finished highlighting a pdf, and saving it, the saved document has the highlight in front of the text, instead of behind it as it was while editing the pdf. Hope I was clear, and the problem is an easy fix!

  2. Several note apps or pdf apps have supported using webdav for sync between devices. For those who have private file servers os NAS webdav is a better way to protect personal privacy and allow bigger storage.

  5. In the iOS version you can select a portion of the screen with the lasso tool and make a screenshot. The screenshot can then be pasted into any GoodNotes document pressing and holding a point on an opened document.
    This functionality is particularly useful for doing homework and copying the exercise description on to a new page in order to work on it.

  6. The Control+p short cut right now just tries to print some screen that says to switch to desktop view to facilitate easier editing. Without the ability to print things like solving excercises for school are impossible to do using GoodNotes.

  9. It would be good to add the option to type with keyboard, while also having the option to draw. Right now, its just the option to draw which yes i have a touch screen windows, but i would rather type and draw diagram!

  10. As a student collaborating with others on GoodNotes, comments are used to share additional information or as a way to summarize pages and chapters. Hence, it would be great if it was possible to view all comments that have been written on the documents, without having to scroll to every single page.

  12. I am planning to use this app with surface, but when I use the surface pen, it is very stressful that the eraser on the butt of the pen remains as the eraser even when I hold the pen again after using the eraser on the butt of the pen.

  14. Please incorporate the zoom-in feature like that of the iOS version on iPad where you can write/draw in the zoomed-in section. This would be really helpful if utilizing a pen with a touch screen windows computer

  15. When writing with the pen, sometimes GoodNotes will stop registering it for a short bit, and cause my handwriting to look very off. This doesn't appear to be a Windows issue since Microsoft OneNote does not have this occur.

    Otherwise, I think the app is in a good state for a beta, and that this being fixed along with adding other essential features (text, importing images, pen settings, etc) would make it a great program!

  16. Right now, if you append a page to a notebook containing an imported PDF, the last page of the PDF will be duplicated, which does not make sense. The ability to add blank pages to PDFs would facilitate doing school work (using scripts, excercise files etc.) using GoodNotes more easily.

  17. There is a costant lag through all the use of the app. It's impossible to use for note-taking becouse it's very inconsistent. For a moment it goes well (at least) and a moment later it became to lag while writing and doing things. For now, bad app ...
