So after getting my Note, I gave all your suggestions a try. Maybe some capable dev can step up, I'd be willing to drop some money if it's fast. I looked at the source of apv, it sadly has very little comments and uses native code, which I'm not familiar with. Otherwise we can maybe add editing capabilities ourselves. If anyone knows of an app that does just that let me know. I would really like to be able to draw in pdfs, but as it stands it's just a pain and by the time I have annotated what I want I have already lost my train of thought. You could change the mode between eraser/pen with the button on the stylus. It would be just like picking up your pen when reading a paperbook and just writing on paper. You wouldn't have to click on a button or anything. The ideal pdf app would allow you to scroll through the document with ease and you only use the pen to draw. The only thing apv needs is editing capabilities. All the other pdf viewers are slow, I have to swipe twice and am constantly seeing loading screens. I really like APV Pdf Viewer for it's speed and the fact that you can zoom out very far and just scroll through the document with ease and no stutters. It is easier to read, maintain, and search for my annotations Instead of pencil tool, I prefer sticky note and text box, and use handwriting to input text. S-Pen handwriting recognition is instant and very accurate. After that you can draw handwritings of 1.0 pt width Then select it and change line width to 1.0. Select the pencil tool, draw a stroke anywhere, save it. Line width of pencil tool is initially set to 3.0 pt, which is very thick. Disable page flipping by scrolling (then you can flip pages by touching left/right edge) or reduce the sensitivity of scroll to 5-10% Indeed, thanks to my new Galaxy Note, the speed is now quite acceptable to me. I think that those features make the app irreplaceable and also make some users like me bearable its slow UI. More powerful apps (e.g., Bluebeam) are much heavier, slower, and more expensive 2-page view support (with page flipping by horizontal scrolling), which is good for reading in landscape mode All annotations are perfectly compatible with Acrobat (it's important when you see your annotated PDFs in other readers, devices or platforms most of the Android and iOS apps, and even popular Windows apps like Bluebeam and PDF Annotator, are not fully compatible with Acrobat) Once a perperty has changed, it is preserved (i.e., every new annotation follows the setting) until you change it again One can easily select each annotation in the annotation list or by touching it, and then easily move it or change properties (color, transparency, line width) of it Smooth handwriting without flickering (except for only a few apps, you can see the flicker effect whenever you draw a single stroke) EzPDF is slower than some competitors like Acrobat reader and SmartQ reader, but it is the best app so far (among all apps on all platforms - yes, including Windows apps) which has great features for annotation:
