I am wondering ( when I am reading a lot of articles) that it would be marvelous to have a "typical electronic pencil" with which I could write my notes to the empty area of the article?

Does anyone know if it already exists? Or would it be a new innovation?

Regards

Juha K from Finland

Hello Juha,

'Pencil tool/Draw free form' in Comments tool can be used to draw/write freely in Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat. if your device supports the functionality of wireless pencil, then you can use the Comments tool.

Note: You cannot write directly on a PDF, only Comments tool can be used to write on a PDF. For detailed information, refer to Adobe article Use annotation and drawing markup tools to add comments in PDFs, Adobe Acrobat and Acrobat Reader

As of now, there are no such features available in Acrobat or Adobe Reader which lets to edit/write using a wireless pencil.

You can use the Adobe wish form to request new features or request modification on the existing feature Feature Request/Bug Report Form

Feel free to update this discussion for any further assistance.

Thanks,

Anand Sri.

Thanks, I am thinking that current tools are a bit clumsy that is why a wireless pencil would be perfect.

But I’ll put the place which you mentioned my wish.

The pencil in Acrobat works, but it DOES NOT give you real freedom to write like in photoshop. But I don't know if maybe in a better computer the pencil would perform better. I think It has to do with the software, Adobe should improve this pencil tool. Many people like to make notes like these. But the great thing is that you can use the background area to write too (Please Adobe, never remove this feature)
