a research paper, copy your annotations to the draft and if you need more information you just click on the PDF annotation and the PDF will open on the page the annotation was made.

In this mind map you can organize all your annotations into categories, create further nodes and add more text. These PDF annotations are then imported by Docear to a mind map. To create bookmarks and comments, you can use almost any PDF reader (highlighting text is a bit more complicated). That means, you highlight text, write comments, or create bookmarks in the PDF. The main idea behind Docear is that you annotate everything you consider important in a PDF. It’s a Beta version and still has some bugs and missing features but overall it will give you a thorough impression of what we consider an academic literature suite should be.

Today, on February 15th, 2012 we released the first public version of Docear.
