Fine point editing, notes in pdf's?

[sdgmcdon]

The primary reason I got the note 10.1 2014 edition over other tablets was for the ability to write notes within/on pdf documents.

I can do this using acrobat, but the point size is HUGE, does anyone know of a way to reduce the point size to a fine point? Right now it's like using a fat marker on paper, I need it to be more like writing with a ball point pen on paper.

I've found a few apps that sort of do this, but not with the ease and speed of acrobat.

Any suggestions? Ideally I'd just like to figure out a way to do this in acrobat, but so far no way found.

Thanks!

In acrobat, write something using the pen, then save, then tap on that written note, it will then allow you to adjust thickness, colour, etc. This is the case for any kind of annotations.... typed, handwritten, Highlight, etc. Once you change it, it stays with those choices, until you decide to change it again, even if you close and reopen acrobat.... Only bad point is you can only choose thickness of 1pt, 3pt, 5pt, etc, which I find goes up at too fast intervals.... But you can definitely get the point size a much thinner size than the ridiculous default when you first use the programme

Too much work.

Maybe.... But if you don't want to change it all the time, but rather just want a finer pen tip, like the OP seems to want, it's not much work.

The Adobe application offers a limited selection off options when compared to Lecture Notes, EzPdf and similar applications.

True. However, I was giving the solution the OP asked for, since there actually is a solution, telling them "use a different app" isn't helpful in my opinion. I knew how to do what they specifically requested, so I told them. They may have reasons they want to use Adobe.

Good enough reason. When I started hunting, Adobe and others were looked at. I installed the EzPdf application again.
