Anybody here uses an eink tablet like boox, supernote or remarkable? What’s your workflow?

I too like the fountain pen setting for taking notes.The stylus behaves very similarly to the fountain pens I have with stub nibs. Vertical lines are thicker than horizontal lines. When I write the line variation is very pleasing and helps mask my poor handwriting.

Well I want it even sooner now! :joy:

I think last time I asked this (last year maybe :thinking:) the Scribe didn’t mark up PDFs in a way that was compatible with other apps (the “PDF standard” we are vaguely wandering towards). I.e. a marked up PDF with highlights and notes wasn’t cross-compatible with other apps. Is that still the case?

There are limits to compatibility. To test them, I exported a file from Ulysses as a PDF file. Then marked it up in Notability on the iPad. Then I transferred the marked up file to the Scribe with the Send to Kindle feature. The hand notes that I made in Notability show up on the Scribe just fine. However, I can’t erase those notes or lasso them.

The Send-To-Kindle step is likely to cause problems with some files. Some people may find that they can’t work with at least a few of their important files.

Just as a I get a good workflow, I accept a new job and I won’t be able to use my Remarkable in the new role, so it’s got to go :frowning:

A shame, as I really liked it for note taking. Looks like I’ll be back to paper and pen!
