How to annotate a PDF

Capture key concepts, evidence, questions, and conclusions without losing the context of the original document.

Steps

  1. 1
    Read by topic

    Read a section first, then highlight only the passages that support your current goal.

  2. 2
    Mark meaningful excerpts

    Prioritize definitions, evidence, decisions, conclusions, and open questions.

  3. 3
    Collect the highlights

    Bring important annotations together so they can be compared and reused.

  4. 4
    Turn notes into structure

    Organize the excerpts into a map, card set, review outline, or analysis framework.

Good to know

Keep the source material, visual structure, and next action in the same workspace so the result stays easy to revisit and share.
