Hi Daniel, My experience running Xournal on windows is extremely limited... As far as I can tell:
1. The main issue that seems to have been reported is interference between the Windows pen (or touch?) interface and the input passed to GTK+ and Xournal. This results either in lags, rough strokes, or other sub-optimal responsiveness of the pen input in xournal. This should be looked into, and most likely is either fixable within the Windows control panel or not easily fixable at all. I am also dubious that high resolution input is available on non-wacom devices, so perhaps stroke smoothing would be a nice feature to think about. 2. There's probably a few minor bugs or misfeatures here or there; one I can think of is that the handling of text fonts is haphazard and may not be fully functional. The code to embed fonts in the "export to PDF" feature is probably hard to fix (and too unreadable to even attempt to fix), but at least the on-screen display and printing via gtk-print should work with minor tweaks. I'm also not sure that copy-paste between xournal and other applications works properly.
