As a student, many lecture notes and other files are downloaded as PDFs. Many times I convert them to word documents to use the drawing tools offered by Microsoft Word that are not offered on Adobe.

For instance, there are more erasing options such as a stroke eraser instead of the point eraser, which is very time consuming. The lasso is also especially helpful. With the lasso, the user is able to erase entire sections of drawings or move them.

On Microsoft Office, there is an entire toolbar for drawing options that would be helpful for students using Adobe to take notes for lecture videos. There are options to draw lines, shapes, and even ink to math.

I would convert all my pdfs to Microsoft Word if the conversion process did not alter the document so drastically, because of the drawing functions and the ability to move information around more easily (such as adding extra space between content).
