That did the job well for me, with (to my surprise) the added ability to recognize my cursive handwriting quite well. I found it took practice to coordinate stylus action on the little pad to the desired actions on the screen.Ībout 7 years ago I was doing a lot of draft sketches and scrawled chemical equations, and purchased a ModBook–a custom Mac that accepted stylus input. The answer to your question is that, in principle, it allows one to use a stylus as though one is writing on the Mac’s screen–sort of. I’ve not tried the Bamboo Pad, but did have an earlier version of a similar Wacom product. Would this, in theory, allow me (in similar fashion to what I do on my iPad), ‘drag-select’ text in the pdf, and tap to highlight - all by moving the stylus over the device’s ‘track-pad’? I’ve had a look around, and can only find the occasional mention of annotating - but nothing really conclusive… And since I’m not familiar in the slightest with the ‘mechanics’ of coding, figured I would pop something up here, and see what comes of it… This is not a criticism of DTPO - since I’ve yet to come across any pdf annotation product on a laptop/desktop that makes for easy/comfortable/intuitive annotating - it’s probably something that simply cannot work as well as on a table, given the physical constraints… Whereas I primarily use my iPad for annotating - there are times I would find it more convenient on my Mac. I’m curious to know if anyone here uses this: ? Not sure if this belongs in the Usage Scenario thread?
