Using Microsoft OneNote 2007
OneNote is a Microsoft tool that is coming into its own as part of Office 2007. Microsoft describes this versatile tool as "an electronic version of a paper notebook where you can write down notes, thoughts, ideas, scribbles, reminders, and all kinds of other information".
Storing information in OneNote is easy. Select a page in your Notebook (you can have several), click, and start typing. Or, using OneNote's clipping tool, select a section of a document, either on your computer or at a website, and OneNote automatically picks it up and drops it onto an open page, complete with a link to where the information originated. Then move and rearrange the information until you have it stored whatever way you want.
And when you need to find it again, OneNote's Search tool will find that phone number that you "wrote down" somewhere or that perfect terminology you saw in that advertisement you copied into you OneNote workbook. Yes, OneNote can search into audio notes and text in graphics.
And what if you receive a PDF or other read-only document and would like to comment on it and email it back? The process is simple:
1. In Adobe, open the file to be marked-up.
2. Select the Print... command.
3. From the drop down where you can choose the printer, choose Send to OneNote 2007. (see below)
4. Open OneNote 2007.
5. Start marking-up! This works best on a tablet, but any machine running OneNote can do basic mark-up.
6. (optional) File/Send to/Mail Recipient (as PDF Attachment)
And that's it!
