Yes sorry, I open the work (that was scanned and saved as a pdf) using
Skim, I make notes, and then export.  When I open them all that can be seen
are the circles or lines I have made but not the text notes.  I then have
to click on "convert notes" to have the notes show up.  I was wondering if
anyone else was having problems but it doesn't seem to be the case.  I will
keep playing around and trying things.
Thanks!
