Hi. Yes, you may annotate the PDF files in your Endnote library.
Besides, the notes you added are searchable using “Any Field + PDF with Notes” / “PDF Notes”.
Therefore, you may also add some references with certain keywords you added to the PDF files in a smart group.
Below is the steps to annotate your PDF files:
-
Open the PDF you attached to a reference in Endnote.
-
Click the icon for Annotate Tool bar on the left top corner for more options.
-
Select the text in the PDF and choose different icon under the Annotate Tool bar for different annotation
e.g.: Sticky note (for notes or comments)
Highlight (for highlighting some text in different color)
Underline (for underlining the selected text)
Strikethrough (for crossing out the text) -
Close the PDF and Save the changes
Here is a video for adding the annotations to your PDF in Endnote:
*The method is the same for Windows and Mac
