I want to use the Sony DPT-S1 as a lab notebook and it would be great to enter some searchable keywords for each entry along with my handwritten notes.

I entered a typed in textbox (I think Sony calls it sticky note) with some terms. I could not find any of the terms when I did a search on the DPT.

However when I exported the pdf notebook to my desktop, opened the file with PDF-Xchange Viewer, and did a search for one of the words, it was able to find the Note. It appears as a Comment in the pdf document.

So this is an FYI but also a question. Are there alternate ways to do this that are searchable on the DPT tablet itself?
