These days, I need to read and brief three or four cases each day. While I note some specific benefits of using Noteshelf that don’t transfer to this new method, such as the annotation summary, I think that there are different features below that make those ones redundant, even if it might not be immediately obvious.

In this way, there was no difference between marking it up on paper and scanning it and scanning it then marking it up - the end result was the same. So it worked great to markup a document, but doing anything with those markups wasn’t possible. Noteshelf is also primarily not a PDF annotation app, it’s a note taking app. This worked fairly well, but as some of you pointed out, the handwriting wasn’t OCRd in Evernote like the rest of my Evernote notes, and this made it significantly less useful long-term.

If you didn’t catch the old article, here’s a basic rundown.

Consequently, my PDF usage and needs has gone way up, and the old system simply wasn’t cutting it. Since then, I’ve graduated from undergrad and started law school. “flat lay photography of blue backpack beside book and silver MacBook” by Matt Ragland on Unsplash
