When you are finished, TOUCH it again. The key to annotating PDF files is PRACTICE and don t be afraid to experiment trying different things. I suggest that you create a separate folder and file to work on so you don t lose any of your important information.

Freehand Drawing Zones and Controls: Freehand Drawing: The Freehand Drawing tool can be used to draw Chord Grids quickly. When you get home, you can then go back and clean them up or redraw them grid using the LINE and OVAL tools. The Freehand Drawing tool can work in two different methods. Normal Mode: You simply draw with your finger or a stylus over a PDF page. Special Drawing Mode: You use the Handwriting Zoom Window which allows you to draw tiny details in a large zoomed window, while seeing an overview of an entire page. When doing a freehand drawing in Normal Mode, you can zoom or pan a page with two fingers. It can be useful when creating a long handwritten note that doesn t fit on one screen. The same gesture works in the Markup mode that is activated via the Side Menu s markup buttons Highlight, Underline, etc. Karl Swope + 6/26/14 Page 9
All notes, highlights, markups and drawings created outside Goodreader, and properly stored in a PDF file, can be viewed or edited in Goodreader.

I will then STAR the file so I can find it when I get time cleanup the grid or other notes. Remember you can write letters in the Freehand Drawing mode. Another helpful feature is the adjustable Palm Rest zone where you can put your palm while drawing. Buttons to Control Palm Rest: Pinching with two (2) fingers inside the zoom window scales its relative size on a PDF page. PALM REST zone doesn t work well with system Multitasking Gestures (swipes with four (4) fingers to reveal multitasking bar, etc.). When putting your wrist on the palm rest zone, the system will intercept this event and often confuse it with a four finger swipe. If you plan to use the Palm Rest Zone, it is recommended to switch the Multitasking Gestures off in the MAIN device.
