PP's Mark-up software

Recently on TVG they used a program to mark-up PP's that looks to have a simple interface for using a pen and highlighter. Anyone know what program they are using?

If you're referring to what they use on the tablet or IPad, they use an app called iAnnotate. At least that's what they said a few months ago. I use an app called GoodReader. Download PDF version of the PP's, and then you can write on them like paper PP's.

Foxit Reader has many of those same functions for free.

I use Foxit, as well. A very user-friendly and functional PDF reader for the PC.

Snagit is a great and reasonably priced program for screen copying, both for video or stills, and you can mark the screen.

On what platform? I never saw the use? This function is built into windows machines, iPads and cell phones?

Why an app.........does the app do something else besides capture the screen?

Maybe multiple captures in a short time? I can see some value if it does that.

It's pretty powerful.

Everyone is different, reading the racing form tends to shine on a tablet for me. Printing to PDF then sending with bluetooth to tablet pays for the tablet itself for the ink and paper I save on. As good as the software you use on the races is, the racing form has always been a read for me.
