Only supports PDF import, no PDF manipulation, no PDF export.The vector graphics manipulation is horrible slow.The MacOS port comes straight out of hell.PDF support and natural, vector-based PDF manipulation.Runs on all major platforms (up to some exceptions, see disadvantages) Have your files everywhere, however internet access might be mandatory. Current version (at least on MacOS) only supports infinite canvases.PDF manipulation only possible to some extent.Does not support vector graphics: Manipulations of sketches and Notes are thus slightly cumbersome.

These have the advantage that the usually can use the full potential of your graphic tablet (if you use one as input device). Thus I considered a lot of design and graphic programs. I have found no program for note keeping, Short Summaryįocusing to have hand written notes in a vector graphics form immensely reduces the available tools. Other apps and services like Evernote or Google Keep are thus not considered. Just that there is no confusion I consider only tools for hand written notes. Looking for different tools for over a week now, I decided to summarise the advantages and disadvantages of all tools I have tested so far.

I gladly will investigate any other proposals of portable and free software.

However, as far as I see it, one can only save the notes to the Cloud? Also, for Linux, one needs to rely on the Web Interface of OneNote and Microsoft is not known for maintaining a proper longterm Linux support (see Skype). Yet, it lacks export to PDF, constantly crashes on MacOs, its vector graphic capabilities are antic and I personally have the feeling that a full-blown painting program is a little overkill for simple handwritten notes. Next, I currently use Krita, which has a really nice support for the tablet and is pretty straightforward to use with external graphics. So far I considered Inkscape, however, the port for MacOs is just awful I won't considering reinstalling it ever on the Mac. My current working machine is a Mac, however, in 3 years I probably discontinue Mac, in which case I don't want to lose everything to proprietary file formats. Do all of the above both on Linux and MacOs.Ideally, work with and export as vector graphics, I don't want to rasterize imported graphics unless needed (i.e., this is optional but very much wanted).Import PDFs and other graphic formats into my handwritten notes, or alternatively write on PDFs.Create Empty documents (in DIN A4 for printing) and write my notes via the graphic tablet.For this, I need to be able to do the following In order not to carry a ton of paper with me every day and to reduce the waste I bought a graphic tablet and wanted to create my future notes on my hard drives. Also, I am working both from home and in my office. Here's my situation: I am a theoretical physicist and I am producing tons of handwritten notes every day.
