Silly question but still.....

[SpecterGT260]

This is going to sound dumb... but has anyone found a pen type that immediately sets in first aid and doesn't smear? I'm tired of writing small when annotating and smearing everything into an unreadable mess

Using pilot V5s. Gel pens suck too.

Use 0.5 pencil, brah. I initially thought I wouldn't want to erase annotations, but now that I'm deep in my dedicated study time, I'm glad I can erase some of this crap that i thought was "so important" 5 months ago.

No smear + erasable = Pencil ftw.

I may do that pencil thing, actually..... Although I have a PTSD-esque relationship with eraser smears from highschool

I actually ended up buying the 2013 FA as an E-book from amazon. It is kindle only, and apparently only lets you read it on (or even download it to) specific types of devices.

I have no ideas on the legalities involved here, but if others have purchased this or other e-reader versions and want help using it..... I may or may not have worked my ass off to get it transferred to PC where I may or may not have stripped the electronic protection on the file and may or may not have converted it to a PDF where I may or may not be able to annotate it using any app I wish (namely iAnnotate) were the full table of contents and full searchability are completely preserved.

I'm in no way willing to distribute the file that I may or may not have in my possession because I have no idea if theoretically stripping electronic protection, which I am not saying I did, would remove the amazon or kindle account info and wouldnt want McGraw Hill coming after me in this entirely theoretical situation.

But if anyone out there purchases the e-book rather than the hard copy and is interested in not being restricted to E-ink or E-reader functions, I may or may not be willing to discuss via PM theoretical actions that may or may not result in such persons being able to crack the file for themselves.

Exactly. I'm using a Staedtler set and I've had 0 smears (except for when I've highlighted wet ink like a *****).
