    Hi i need a recommendation. I need to mark exam papers and will be pdf scanning them. I like to have a way to write on the pdf whats right an wrong.

    Whats the best stylus i can get, bricks and mortar or online but i need delivered by wednesday as ill be flying off thursday and need to leave physical exam paper at home form for saftey?

    I would also like to have any recommendation for apps that would help achieve that, syncs with dropbox to download the pdf, i correct using stylus then save as pdf to another folder on dropbox, ie corrected folder, so i can print this out again later when i get back to give to students?

    Thanks!!

    I'd say the skitch app would be good for marking papers but I've no idea about the stylus.

    Using a stylus on an iPad is a pain, to be honest. I have heard it compared to writing with a sausage, which I think captures the sensation nicely. I'll see if I can find mine and get the name of it. I stopped using it ages ago, it was so useless.

    The best app I have used for PDF annotations is neu.annotate+ It will allow you enter text on the PDF using the keyboard, site you don't have to use the stylus. You can use your finger for everything.
