Is it hard to get stuff back and forth between computer and iPad? It's easy on Android, just plug in, drag n' drop or copy/paste. Because I'd still be using the computer for some work, just would like the option to be mobile and able to do bits and not be tied to the computer all the time. I gotta justify this somehow..... 😂
Are there any problems with renaming files, images or screenshots on iPad or copying and making a duplicate file? I like to do my edits, then name the file with chapter and page where I left off.
Renaming screenshots is very important, I take lots, need meaningful names on them in order to search and find what I need when I need it.
I don't think I can afford the large 12" option, plus I think it would be a bit heavy and cumbersome. I like the idea of the 10.5", because it is lighter than my Pixel C. Which is hard enough to carry about, it barely fits my bag, don't want to go larger!

iOS 11 will soon be out which gives you an app called Files which will let you rename and access files from other services.
Image editing apps are more plentiful on iOS than on Android. Depending on your editing needs, there are things like
Affinity Photo which is a full on desktop class app for iPad that is compatible with Photoshop. It costs money and quite a bit but it is as good as its desktop counterpart.
Screenshot++ is a very good screenshot manager. It lets you add frames albeit frames for iOS devices as well as managing screenshots in folders, etc.
As far as straight text files? So many apps to choose from on iOS.
Byword,
iA Writer,
Editorial, Ulysses though
Ulysses is subscription only now but it is also a full blown novel/blog/serious writing app.
You can't see the filesystem on the iPad on your computer natively but you
can buy an app for Mac and PC called
iMazing which will give you access to the filesystem on your iPad. That's really the best way. Or you can install iTunes which will give you the option of dragging items into specific apps on your iPad.
You can duplicate and rename files on iOS but it will be easier with iOS 11 which comes out on the 19th.
If you need anymore assistance I'd be happy to help.
Also:
PDF Expert is probably a better bet than Goodreader as Goodreader hasn't had a significant update in years. I heard they're working on v5 but that's been happening for months now.
The pencil is absolutely precise. No worries there.
Let me know if I can help further.
