Viewing PDFs on iPad?

[dmaul1114]

Conversions can get wonky if you have a lot of tables and figures in the document (I really only use PDFs for scholarly research articles). Plus a lot of PDFs of scholarly journal articles are just scanned images of the physical journals that you can't even cut and paste text from much less convert unfortunately.

How is that iAnnotate app for annotation of PDFs compared to Goodreader?

I have iAnnotate and goodreader and I use iAnnotate for reading PDFs all the time. Here is why:
- renders PDFs much faster than good reader
- superb search engine that includes indexing
Now if you want the fastest rendering of PDFs then you gotta use iBooks. However for searching documents the best app is iAnnotate. For managing your file you go with goodreader.
