![]() ![]() ![]() DEVONthink to Go is a handy bucket / filing cabinet, and not much else. I only use MarginNote for this, if I have multiple documents in a set of annotations, or LiquidText if I want to use LT’s graphical features. (Personally, I think doing any kind of studious annotation in DEVONthink to Go is a horrible experience. I think you also need to own the premium version of LT … not sure about that part. If for instance you dragged text out of a PDF in the LT workspace, than appended comments to that text – that sort of LT-specific annotation will probably be lost. Limitations: LT has annotation features that cannot be stored back to a PDF document. LT will ask if you want to “Send your annotations back to your original source PDF file”. When finished, click the “Home” icon in the upper left corner of the LT display. Click it to open the document in Liquid text. Starting at the top level of DEVONthink to Go, navigate down to the database and group where your document is. At the top level of this, make sure DEVONthink to Go is “Source”. That will bring up the iOS/iPadOS Files interface. In Liquid Text on an iPad, in the Open Document panel in the left sidebar, choose “Open File”. Is that what I want, rather than trying to Open In LiquidText, which is not an option… Is this going to happen? Or will there be workarounds required?įor example, having now downloaded LiquidText, when I tap the Share icon in DTTG, the only option relating to LiquidText is ‘Copy to LiquidText’. This leaves me with the question: do the changes I make in LT show up completely in DTTG and DT3 on my Mac? Obviously, it will be lovely to have a MacOS version LiquidText, but right now, I just want to read, highlight, annotate (handwritten) and see that in DT3 and DTTG. I assume that I simply select the Share button and then Open In? Workflow is my concern, and may have answered most of this already, but what I want to know is how I get from a DTTG document into the annotating and reading space in LiquidText. There are ways round it, sure, but LiquidText interests me as a reading and annotating tool, but also I would like to explore its other unique features. I don’t much like the reading frame as the bar at the top, and lack of full-screen view, unnecessarily minimise the page. Therefore, I have downloaded DTTG onto my iPad Mini. I’ve just bought an iPad Mini for reading articles and other material, and an Apple Pencil to highlight and annotate. I have been using DT3 (and its predecessor) for the last year or so. Or if you could pull this off with Onenote I'd appreciate your tips.I am a PhD Fellow researching international law and emergent technologies, among other things. I tried to summarize textbook and write on Onenote with keyboard + pen handwriting combo but if I add some text in between, the text and pen writings no longer align so it sucks.Īlso, I tried to refer directly to PDF by snipping text and pasting it on Onenote but it is not to useful and looks clumsy.ĭoes anybody know of any Windows or even Android app that has Marginnote / Liquidtext functionality to annotate interactively on PDF? I wanted to simulate this in Onenote but it seems near impossible. What Marginnote and Liquidtext is capable is to annotate directly on PDF and at the same time write separate note w/ mind map that can refer to particular section of the PDF so that when you tap on a mind map node, you can go to exact section of the PDF and read it in full context. I currently have Surface pro 4 and using Drawboard PDF and Onenote to go paperless in college but having two separate apps to manage course materials suck. I've always thought iPad and other Apple products in general are overly expensive compared to its lack of functionalities but when a friend of mine showed me what some amazing apps like Marginnote and Liquidtext could do for reading PDF ebooks I was just sold. ![]()
