Boox m96 - reading PDF annotations from computer

halox · 03-20-2015, 02:23 PM

Hey everyone - just joined. Love my M96 - this thing is incredible.

Question - with the default Neo Reader, I'm able to easily add new annotations and export the PDFs for addressing notes on my computer.

However - if I add annotations on my computer, I can't seem to open them on the Onyx Reader app. I see the icon of a little text bubble that indicates that there is an annotation, but clicking on it (or long clicking on it) does nothing.

If I use another PDF reader (Xodo), it works fine - but then I can't scribble on screen as easily as with the default app.

Any way to read previously baked-in annotations on the default reader?

From my viewpoint the best pdf app is ezPDF PRO. And the best epub app is Moon+ Reader PRO.

Agreed on Moon+.

For ezPDF pro - how's the stylus speed for writing on the document?

It is OK, I mean, it is as good as it has to. Although, have in mind that I'm using an old stable update (20141013), maybe in new updates it doesn't work as good as in the one I have installed.

Best.

I am working with NeoReader. When I export the annotations and open the new xxx.export.pdf file on my PC with Adobe Reader, it only shows the underlinings, but without any text. Has anybody encountered the same problem?
