I use ez pdf to highlight notes that are .doc and pdf, but are there any apps to highlight and take notes on powerpoint files? A lot of my professors use powerpoints as notes and I can't seem to find a good app to do this..anything similar to ez pdf that will work with powerpoint files? (such as highlight lines and very little actual handwritten input)
You can convert ppt to pdf using a program such as microsoft office. I do this every week because my prof posts ppt on her website and I use my transformer in class.

Hi XDAers,
I was looking for good thread giving an overview of mobile office apps and couldn't seem to find one, so I wrote one hoping to help any other fellow noobs so they don't need to do the research.
Please note that all these apps are FREE apps or the free versions (or trials) of paid apps.

If anyone's got these apps please give us a review below on any pros and even more importantly cons of the apps. Can you also state if the version is free or paid just so people know the capabilities of the version.
Any omissions and corrections to would be appreciated!
I use DocumentsToGo. It is the most app for Office.

Hello I tried to search the forum and saw nothing on this topic and hoping that there is a solution. I highlighted some documents that I have in .pdf format on the computer using the Adobe reader software. When I try to open the saved .pdf on my xoom with aldiko it does not show any of the text on the highlighted pages just the color. On pages that have not been highlighted the text is visible. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
I hope there is a solution because I will have to revert my documents back to when they were not highlighted just to view them on my xoom.
Thanks,

I haven't used Aldiko for pdf files. But, I just tested out viewing a pdf that I had highlighted, and added notes to, on a computer. These apps all opened it fine on my Xoom:
Adobe reader
PDF To Go (I believe part of Documents to go)
RepliGo Reader
RepliGo is nice for adding annotations directly to a PDF on an Android device.
Adobe® Reader® is the free, trusted leader for reliably viewing and interacting with PDF documents across platforms and devices. Download the free Adobe Reader X mobile app to work with PDF files on your iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch. Easily access, manage, and share a wide variety of PDF file types, including PDF Portfolios, password-protected documents, fillable forms, and Adobe LiveCycle® rights-managed PDF files.
Lots of users wonder how to transfer PDF files to Adobe Reader, that’s quite simple with the help of i-FunBox. Following is a brief tutorial:
·Open i-FunBox
·Choose “Documents” under “Adobe Reader”
·Then copy or drag your PDF file to i-FunBox
·Now take a look at your iPhone/iPad, and open your Adobe Reader documents, then you’ll find your PDF file there
Can anybody recommend decent viewers which offer "Two Page View" for PDF and/or djvu files? Thanks.
1. EbookDroid sorta gives this option for both file formats.
EzPDF Reader has that option for pdfs, and it also allows you to write and take notes on the pdf with your s-pen.
what ebook format should I get to be able to work with the S-pen (Kindle , epub , pdf ) ?
Anybody know where can I get pdf ebook ?
I would always lean toward epub, I haven't investigated drm ebooks on here yet, but all the ebooks I have I convert to epub to read with fbreader (on both android for all tablet phone and book reader)
edit;
my book reader isn't android, but does have fbreader.
I use calibre on win and Linux PC's to convert formats
I use epub instead of pdf as it is easier to reflow text for various screen sizes and screen rotate

Calibre cannot translate the Snotes .snb format and i haven't found anything that can. It is an obscure format. I wonder why Samsung used it other than to force people to have their devices to read it.

If you want an ebook to use with the S-Pen I suggest you go for PDF format. As far as I know there are no ebook readers (Apps) that allow marking up epub or mobi files. If you use pdf there are several apps that allow for marking up pdf files with the pen,

Ez pdf reader will open pdf files and when you select the pen at the top it will ask you if you want to copy the file for making annotations and then on that copy you can write what you want with the s pen. BTW the copy will show up in the library shelf when you open Ez pdf reader.
