rechnergott 4 Posted October 7, 2016 Posted October 7, 2016 I would like to be able to insert a table into my note, and insert and PDF print out into one of those grids. Here is a practical example: For school, I need to read through a lot of studies that are provided by my professor in PDF format. I would like to create a table with 2 columns and 1 row. In the left hand column, I can insert the PDF and have it visible in print out format. In the right hand column, I can keep notes about the PDF. I can definitely do this in 2 notes and have them side by side on my screen, but it is much better for me to keep my notes and source materials in a single note.

Thanks for the idea - this works fantastic on my Mac It might be different in Windows - Evernote Mac has a built in pdf viewer It scrolls up/down though; 20 page PDF results in 20 pages of notes I'd probably use the two window approach for long PDFs
rechnergott 4 Posted October 8, 2016 Author Posted October 8, 2016 So I just tested this and it seems like an inconsistency between Mac and Windows note editing windows. On the Mac - the behavior is as expected - the doc scales within the column. However, in windows, the PDF preview generates on top of the Grid. Screenshots here of differences. So is this a bug? I don't know what to do with this information now!

I don't know what to do with this information now! I have the same issue on my IPad. It's not a bug, just a different pdf viewer setup. My solution has been to use two windows; one to view the pdf, one for my notes. The pdf is stored as an attachment in the note; I open it in Adobe for the separate window
