If you comment and highlight a PDf on your computer and then transfer to the Nova pro, does it show up correctly?

Speaking for the Boox Note Pro, which I've used for little over a week: working with PDFs is fine, but not as seamless as I'd hoped.
Highlighting is easy enough in most PDFs (simply long press and drag). Scribbling notes and circling things works good as well. But for these to show up back on your computer, you need to export to a new PDF. Then the notes and scribbles are embedded in the PDF and you can continue working on the computer. But this also means that you cant "go back": the notes are now part of the PDF, and no longer editable with the Boox app. But they are displayed correctly.
That said, you can install other software for PDF management on Android.
EDIT: Also note that scribbles really increase the size of the PDF. A 10 page document with annotations on each page was suddenly some 20 MBs bigger. Not a very big issue, but a little pity since I hoped to store it in an archive.
