Windows Phone Thoughts: Repligo v2.0 Reviewed

Comments and Text Highlighting
Related to bookmarks, comments are free-form notes which you can now create within Repligo documents.


Figure 6: Creating a comment.

Comments created manually like this are only linked to a particular page, rather than a section or specific point within the page, so can only be used for general notes as they only take you to the start of the page they were created on. However, Repligo now also gives you the ability to highlight text (in a variety of colours), and comments are automatically created for these highlights.

The advantage of these highlight-generated comments is that they take you directly to the highlighted text rather than just the page, so are much more useful that manual comments. In addition you can edit them to add additional notes to the comment.

Like bookmarks, comments and highlighting are stored within the document - you're prompted to save the document when closing it if you've added any of these items.
