    Thanks I saw that.

    Do you use it? I would pay for it but I can't find out if it saves notes to work on a mac or windows and what asps can read and write notes to work with it

    dont use it myself, just seen it gets good reviews.
    perhaps contact the dev to confirm what it can do?

    you could always download a "trial" somewhere

    Actually ye I might try the dev and see if they get back, also the trial is a good option as if it does anywhere near what I want or even better than the only other app I can see that does pdf notes on Android I will actually buy it.

    Hi, I use ezPDF(https://market.android.com/details?id=udk.android.reader) on an Archos 70 (7" tablet).

    It lets you comment, highlight or do freehand drawings(squiggles) on your pdfs. It also lets you choose to save the annotations in the pdf or in separate file/pdf.

    I find the horizontal scroll lock feature very handy - lets you zoom to a certain size and then fix the zoom so it doesn't change between pages.
    The full list of features is on the page at the link above. It costs €1.38.

    Cool thanks duffman85 - i downloaded repligo and returned it for free after I found it couldnt read notes made by skim.

    A (what I assume was a) dev of repligo was curious, so I sent him a pdf with notes made by skim and they might implement support depending on difficulty/time/need

    Hope ezpdf can.

    ezPDF is worse.

    Looks like Repligo is best of a bad lot (for me, its a nice app - it just cant read notes i made in skim)
