Methodology of scientific literature annotation
In order to maximize the use of PDF annotations, the recommended "three colors and five steps" reading method:
Tool configuration phase
- Enable split-screen mode: left literature + right mind map
- Customized toolbars: retain the three core tools of highlighting/handwriting/textboxes
- Preset annotation color scheme: red = point of doubt, blue = point of innovation, green = to be cited
Five-Step Intensive Reading Process
- Quick-reading markers: highlight all chart titles and section subheadings in green
- Focused annotation: methodological innovations are boxed in blue in the discussion section
- QUESTION RECORDING: Where there is doubt about the experimental design, handwrite in red "Sample size?"
- RELATED THINKING: Add a text box in the margin to record "Comparison with Smith2019"
- Summary Generation: Check annotated content to generate reading notes using AI
Efficiency Improvement Tips
- Establishment of a personal notation system: e.g. "❗" for important references
- Batch export annotations: regularly organize annotations into an Excel knowledge matrix
- Voice annotation supplement: record 30-second voice memos on complex ideas
